but the question is, who worships him? Does anyone on this forum revere Bruce Lee? I mean, there may be a guy somewhere who reveres Bruce Lee. But is this a conversation about something that only exists in our imagination?
Trust me go look at YouTube comments and you’ll get people saying he can knock out heavyweight ufc fighters and be genuinely serious about it
"For every one who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."
.....I'm not a church-goer, so I had to look this up. IMO It's appropriate in this context.
Be what you are. Ugly bag of mostly water!

I don't like the idea of "Be like water". To let water to go through rock takes too much time.
I like the idea of "Be like drill". You can drill a hole whenever and wherever that you want to.
Bruce Lee died too young with his conservative approach. He didn't live long enough to reach to his next level (more aggressive approach).
If you
- punch me, I'll take you down.
- kick me. I'll take you down.
- do nothing, I'll still take you down.

DC is the birth pace of Jow Ga In the US. They had a strong community presence. The school was known for having good fighters and many of the students HD that reputation. Their mindset is to spread Jow Ga by sharing Jow Ga.
Unfortunately most people from DC tend to stay in DC or close by in Virgina and Maryland. The students may move but most teacher seem to stay close to DC.
Too bad it’s not around here. I would love to check it out.

Martial arts teachers don't .ake the best marketers. TKD chains do an excellent job.
I totally get it. My wife takes care of all of that for me. I mostly just have to teach.
Sho-Nuff sure was a trip.

Yeah, I had to look it up, too.
Trivia fer ya: those kinds of statements are called antimetabole ( AN-ti-mə-TAB-ə-lee.) "The Sphinx" in the movie Mystery Men used it a lot.

Like I tell my high school students when they try to rush out the door just as the bell rings... You are not Pavlov's dogs. You leave when dismissed, not before ...and not because you hear a bell! When a few try to test me, I hold them till after all the other's have left.Yeah, I had to look it up, too.

That's Mathew 20:16 which I now know to be an example of antimetabole!

What are you disagreeing with @Hot Lunch? Did I misspell it, or are you still trolling my posts?
