I’m crazy, but I’m not stupid.

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

Don’t try to be like Jackie. There is only one Jackie. Study computers instead.

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.

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.

Money for me today does not really matter.
