“I want to show audiences I can act.”

Life will knock us down, but we can choose whether or not to stand back up.

Officials of governments that use or produce landmines should be forced to see the reality of how landmines hurt people and make them suffer, because this would surely make them stop.

In America there’s no way I can make the kind of movie I like to make.

The ads all call me fearless, but that’s just publicity. Anyone who thinks I’m not scared out of my mind whenever I do one of my stunts is crazier than I am.

Kung fu lives in everything we do. It lives in how we put on a jacket and how we take off a jacket. It lives in how we treat people. Everything is kung fu.

You don’t need a reason to be nice to someone.

I’m crazy, but I’m not stupid.

Chinese people need to be controlled; otherwise, they will do whatever they want.

Do not let circumstances control you. You change your circumstances.

I do small things. I try to do good things every day. If everyone does some good, think of what a good world this will be.

Besides entertainment and action, I want to educate. You know, as a producer or director, we do have a responsibility to society.

I know I have to run 20 more minutes if I eat ice cream. Basically, I eat everything, but I just do more training.

Coffee is a language in itself.

I sometimes just don’t like to see the Ultimate Fighting. I just find it, as a martial artist, I just find it too violent.

I think every young child can learn through any martial art. They would then learn to respect their life, respect their parents, respect their country, and respect the whole world.

Our job, as actors, is not to tell the audience how interesting we are, but to entertain them with our films.

I don’t write because there’s an audience. I write because there is literature.

I guess any movie actor can become a role model for audiences out there who enjoy him.

There are a lot of things that are personally uncomfortable to show, especially me without makeup and completely bloated or crying. But I’ve realized that it’s time for me to show my audience that you don’t have to be perfect to achieve your dreams. Because nobody relates to being perfect.

I would really, really, really like to be a legend like Madonna. Madonna knows what to do next, and when she’s performing, the audience is just in awe of her.

I am a force of nature. I command an audience by just my mere presence.

We need to try to unite audiences, unite countries, join musical tastes, unite people.

There are some shows that you wish you could walk and be in the audience for at the same time.
