If you have watched Kung Fu Panda, I think you may have a deep impression of the supporting character – Master Oogway for his wisdom and knowledge. Oogway is an elderly turtle, who is the creator of kung fu, and the founder of the Valley of Peace.
Master Oogway’s personality is indifferent and calm. With more than a thousand years of experience, he gives advice to Shifu, Po and Furious Five. His aging body contains infinite strength and wisdom.
I collect most of Master Oogway’s inspirational quotes as follows.
