Be Like Bruce

And be like water. So you can express yourself honestly. Mr. Lee died 45 years today. That was such a shocking death. There was no gradual degradation as in the case of Steve Jobs that would have made you see it coming. Indeed the SF-born founder of Jeet Kune Do – roughly the BMW of martial arts – was only 32 when he breathed his last in Hong Kong. He basically did for martial arts what his airness did for basket-ball.

1973 was also quite an interesting year. Indeed the first oil crisis happened just a few months after Bruce passed away.
