Well, it's very easy to demonstrate in fencing
In fencing, there are straight attacks and circular attacks. Bruce Lee poached a lot of JKD theory from fencing theory, as being that fencing is a western discipline, it's theory is very logic driven, almost mathematical. In fact, Bruce may have even poached this very aphorism, but it's been a long time since I've engaged his JKD writings, so I can't remember for sure.

Oh bother. If only I had said it was an ancient Chinese saying, I could have come off like Master Po. :o
