“Storms and darkness scared me, but somehow it encouraged me to learn about nature and I think nothing’s dark, dark is beautiful too.”

I also like to follow nature’s rhythm. In times or places, they have their own rhythm. So you cannot push it. So we must accept that as well. Wherever we’re born at this time, we just live it.

I hate shopping. I don’t go shopping. If I do, I run in and out.

I’m very private in person. I’m very sensitive and shy with men individually. But when I’m talking, maybe there’s this other channel or this other side and other way of working in my mind, and I convert and become carefree.

Johnny Depp is one of my favorite actors because he takes chances.

And also, I know I have this responsibility or mission to show people, to encourage them to live their dream, too.

Basically, I have a gift as an actress, and I want to present the sophisticated side of me as an actress and a person.

I’m one of the best actresses. One day I will win an Oscar.

I think I’m known as an adventuress. Even generally in life, I have no fear. It’s not that I’m not afraid of things, but when I am afraid of something, I don’t back away – I approach it and try to understand what makes me afraid.

You have to accept the storms and the rainy days and the things in life that you sometimes don’t want to face.

You never know what’s going to happen. That’s why I like acting. It’s precious to me to be able to live more than one life.

I think sometimes I’m more fond of doing the research for the character because you learn so much. Sometimes shooting is really difficult because you wake up early and you’re always hurrying. And sometimes I don’t know what I’m doing. I’m here and there.

Acting to me is real life – I don’t act.

The definition of love is giving.

I think I’m like a free spirit.

I guess I feel like it’s a gift to meet those talented artists like George Lucas and Oliver Stone, Spike Lee and Richard Kelly. Even if it’s a small role, it’s a gift to be working that closely with them.

English is my second language, but in Hong Kong, they don’t know that I’m from China. They think I’m from Hollywood because all the films they see are from here. China and Hong Kong are very different places, but they’re starting to merge. Still the culture is very different.

I wanted to make a massive work so as soon as Nick Mitzevich invited me I said yes straight away and began to make the work.

You deal with failure – strike, strike, strike – all the time. Acting is like that. You have to have a very thick skin in a way – your hair is too dark, you’re too ugly for the part, your audition wasn’t good.

I find new and healing images in that dark, silent place away from emotions that control me.

The record in the Federal Court discloses that (the NCI) took sides and sought in every way to hinder, suppress and restrict…(a) treatment of cancer.

(It) could involve the AMA and others in an interstate conspiracy of alarming proportions.

Every human being of adult years and sound mind has a legal right to determine what shall be done with his own body.

Public and private funds have been thrown around like confetti at a country fair, to close up and destroy clinics, hospitals, and scientific research laboratories which do not conform to the viewpoint of medical associations.

No, we don’t sit around in dark corners and plan strategies on how we’re going to slant the news. We don’t have to. It comes naturally to most reporters.
