Quote: 
“As long as I can remember I feel I have had this great creative and spiritual force within me
that is greater than faith, greater than ambition, greater than confidence,
greater than determination, greater than vision. It is all these combined.
My brain becomes magnetized with this dominating force
which I hold in my hand.”
-Bruce Lee-
