Acting to me is real life - I don't act.

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 think we all have our own mission, duty, fate in life so for me somehow I think I am always walking on the edge of life and take risks.

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.

The definition of love is giving.

Yeah, well my name is Bai Ling. That means white spirit, and I really feel like sometimes I'm not existing.

Well I think always, when you remake films, I always think the first one is most original, authentic.
