"You will continue to suffer if you have an emotional reaction to everything that is said to you. True power is sitting back & observing everything with logic. If words control you that means everyone else can control you. Breathe and allow things to pass." - Bruce Lee

This is excellent, though I would swap "logic" for "equanimity." ETA: I doubt Bruce Lee would have recommended relying on logic.
