What does "Be water, my friend" mean?

This is a part of a Bruce Lee quote. The full quote is below:

“I said empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.”

He is urging us to be adaptable to any situation. Every situation is different, and as such, demands a different response. What works in one may not work best in another. Don’t be constrained by any one system or doctrine. For example, you need a hammer to drive a nail, but you wouldn’t use it to remove a screw. You would use a screwdriver instead.


今時今日香港人的特徵

行路快 | 投訴快 | 鬧人快 | 說話時夾雜港式英語 | 會為啖氣投訴到底

又低頭 | 又不望 | 又不讓 | 撞到又會鬧 | 香港真是冇地方發洩
