You just wait. I'm going to be the biggest Chinese Star in the world.

The future looks extremely bright indeed, with lots of possibilities ahead -- big possibilities. Like the song says, We've just begun.

If you want to learn to swim jump into the water. On dry land no frame of mind is ever going to help you.

The past is an illusion. You must learn to live in the present and accept yourself for what you are now. What you lack in flexibility and agility you must make up with knowledge and constant practice.

A quality martial artist is always ready for any move, and trains oneself invincible.
