Enter the Dragon (also known as The Deadly Three), originally titled Blood and Steel is a 1973 Warner Brothers and Concord Production Inc., martial arts film starring martial artist Bruce Lee, John Saxon and Jim Kelly. It is the last completed film Bruce Lee appeared in before his death. He died six days before the movie was first released.
Lee
A good fight should be like a small play, but played seriously. A good martial artist does not become tense, but ready. Not thinking, yet not dreaming. Ready for whatever may come. When the opponent expands, I contract. When he contracts, I expand. And when there is an opportunity, I do not hit. It hits all by itself. (to his teacher)
What was that? An exhibition? We need emotional content. Now try again! (to his student Lahn)
I said emotional content. Not anger! Now try again! With me! (to his student Lahn)
moon
Don't think, feel! It is like a finger pointing away to the moon. Don't concentrate on the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory. Do you understand? (to his student Lahn).
Never take your eyes off your opponent, even when you bow. (to his student Lahn).
My style? You can call it "the art of fighting without fighting". (to Parsons)
You have offended my family, and you have offended the Shaolin Temple. (to Han before starting the fight)
Boards... don't hit back. (to O'Hara before starting the fight)
Roper
I admire your judgement. Nobody's more loyal than daddy's little girl. (to Han after being attacked by Han's female guards)
Williams
I don't waste my time with it, when it comes, I won't even notice; I'll be too busy looking good. (to Han)
I was outside, but I wasn't the only one. (to Han)
Mr. Han, suddenly, I'd like to leave your island. (to Han)
Bullshit, mister Han-Man! (to Han)
Been practicing huh? (to Han)
Man, you've come right out of a comic book! (to Han)
Han
Gentlemen, welcome, you honor our Island, I look forward to a tournament of truly epic proportions, we are unique Gentlemen, in that we create ourselves, through long years of rigorous training, sacrifice, denial, pain, we forge our bodies in the fire of our will, but tonight let us celebrate. Gentlemen, you have our gratitude! (speech at the party previous to tournament)
Very few people can be totally ruthless. It isn't easy. It takes more strength than you might believe! (to Roper)
There is a point that you will not go beyond. (to Roper)
You fought well yesterday, your style is unorthodox. (to Williams)
It isn't the art but combat that you enjoy? (to Williams)
We are all ready to win, as we are born knowing only life, it is defeat you must prepare for.(to Williams)
What were you looking when you attacked my guards? (to Williams)
You were the man outside the palace? (to Williams)
You will tell me who else! (to Williams)
Lyrics
枉有一片真愛心 招惹一寸寸愁恨
勸你不必怨天怨命運 要承認太天真
*你有權利 他有戰令 許多爭鬥怎麼一再湧現
有權亦冇權問 有誰沒有國家 但世上有暴君
#史記不要君去寫 通鑒不要我來問
何妨高山舞劍度日 赤松下過一生
重唱 *,#
更無俗氣可近
