When I lived in Hong Kong, I felt that Hong Kong is my family.

Usually action films have a formula: good guy gets in trouble, his wife dies, friends have problems, so he goes to the mountain, learns martial arts, comes back, and kills the bad guy.

In martial arts, the biggest enemy is self. Inside you struggle because you want to prove something.

I remember when I was 11, I did some Kung-fu demonstrations in Hong Kong in 1974.

I think 'Hero' is not a real martial arts movie; it is not about violence, or formula.

If you are always allowed to stop training whenever you feel discomfort, you will find it too easy to give yourself permission to quit.

I can watch CNN on television or the Internet to find out what happened in Hong Kong ten minutes ago. After all, it doesn't matter where something is made, we're all part of the same big family now.
