I believe in Bruce 100%, but that philosophy only applies we you have a grasp on how to fight. Bruce Lee soon after said, "Jeet Kune Do is to be an extension of what you already know," meaning that he doesn't shun different styles, but feels that you shouldn't put so much emphasis on style. A TKD fighter can beat a Muay Tai fighter and vice versa: it all depends on the fighter.
I myself am a fan of all Martial Arts, being the American Karate Association's national champion in fighting and team fighting (fighting bare fisted against a group of people to test stamina, endurance, and decision making ability).
I do like Bujinkan Ninjutsu, though, as it works with all weapon styles and 水とん。
