> Remember, I am no teacher; I can merely be a signpost for a traveler who is lost. It is up to you to decide on the direction. All I can offer is an experience but never a conclusion, so even what I have said needs to be thoroughly examined by you. I might be able to help you to discover and examine your problem by awakening your awareness. A teacher, a good teacher that is, functions as a pointer to truth but not a giver of truth.

this is a real quote of his?
Yes. It's in Shannon's book. He also wrote a shortened version of this in a screenplay to a movie that never got filmed called, Northern Leg, Southern Fist. It is based on tradition zen teaching, but beautifully articulated by Bruce.
Bruce Lee was an amazing human being. ๐งก
Even more now, he is a mentor to me, and speaks words of wisdom many years after his departure from this world.
One of my favorite teachers, Steve Gregg, thenarrowpath.com, stresses that he teaches people "how to think, not what to think"
This is great
