李小龙的原名，叫做李振藩，于1940年出生于美国旧金山。一岁时便随父母回到香港，在那里度过童年。年仅十六岁的他，就拜于咏春宗师叶问门下，学习了包括洪拳、太极拳、少林拳等拳术。1957年，他参演了自己演绎生涯的唯一一场文戏《雷雨》。直到1961年，李小龙才因为学术，前往美国学习戏剧、哲学、心理学等多门学科。在美国期间，参演了《青蜂侠》等影视作品。真正让他名声大气的是70年代的几部香港电影，其中包括《精武门》、《猛龙过江》、《龙争虎斗》等等。
然而，天妒英才，1973年这位年轻的武打明星便早早离开人世，为世人留下的，只有他矫健的身影，和各式经典的电影作品。
学哲学的他，更是留下了不少发人深省的名言名句，值得大家深思!

不要害怕失败。最大的罪恶不是失败，而是漫无目的。只要努力了，虽败，犹荣。
Empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and 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.
清空脑里的一切，如水一般，成为无形。你把水倒到杯子里，它就会变成杯子的形状;你把水倒到瓶子里，它就会变成瓶子的形状;你把水倒到茶壶里，它就会变成茶壶的形状。水可以细水长流，也可以水滴石穿。成为水吧，我的朋友。
