Bruce Lee: The Path of Perfection
14.99 €
The only thing available 3
A unique philosophy of thought and life—from the legendary Bruce Lee.
He went down in history as an actor, martial artist, and symbol of free spirit. But behind the swiftness of his blows lurked another world—the world of an artist who daily stripped away all unnecessary elements to get closer to his true self. A Chinese man born in the United States, Bruce Lee embraced two traditions—East and West. He drew on the sages of India and China, ancient and modern philosophers, but he considered his own path of reason—the art of creating "visible music of the soul"—to be the pinnacle of knowledge.
His life, reflected in these memoirs—a collection of autobiographical notes, letters, essays, and poems from various years—has also become a work of art. This is the confession of an artist of life who chose the difficult path of true self-discovery. The iconic actor and director, a distinguished martial artist, reveals his inner world here, in which he emerges as a poet, philosopher, writer, husband, and father. These pages offer no eulogy for a legend, but an invitation to reflect on the balance between action and silence, body and spirit, form and freedom.
He called it the art of being oneself. And this is his greatest work.
