What Is Train Smart Not Hard?
Inspirational Quotes

“Simplicity is the key to brilliance.” – Bruce Lee
“Love what you do and do what you love. Don’t listen to anyone else who tells you not to do it. You do what you want, what you love. Imagination should be the center of your life.” – Ray Bradbury
“If you love life, don’t waste time, for time is what life is made up of.” – Bruce Lee
“Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.” – Bruce Lee
