art stars two
Jackie Chan is a very good comedy/martial arts star. He does one kind of martial arts that Jet Li doesn't know how to do and Jet Li does a martial art that Jackie Chan doesn't know how to do. You can both go to two Chinese restaurants, but both can have different kinds of food.
levels next enlightening
I study more of truth and enlightening. I had to go the next level to talk about life.
sports art children
I didn't go to normal children school. I went to sports school when I was 8. So I studied martial arts.
fun fighting reality
In acting you do a lot of research. Audience watch Jet Li because of the fight. They watch other actors because they are funny. If they want funny, they don't want to see Jet Li, they watch the other guy. That's the reality I face, until the one day I can prove I can make film without action that is a fun movie. Then everybody will say Jet Li, hmmm.
short-love powerful love-is
Love is more powerful than kicking ass.
art philosophy two
Martial arts have two parts. One is external, other internal. The external is physical part. The internal is philosophy of how to be, what kind of person learns martial arts.
fuel excuse
Failure is a fuel for excuses.
hair beats
You can beat me up, but don't touch my hair, I will kill you!
courage brain groups
A mob is a group of persons with heads but no brains.
faces ends
One cannot choose how one's life begins but one can choose to face the end with courage
art struggle self
In martial arts, the biggest enemy is self. Inside you struggle because you want to prove something.
art thinking bothering-you
Everywhere I go, I still have time to meditate. People think meditating is sitting there, nobody bothering you, but you can even talk and still meditate
art real hero
I think 'Hero' is not a real martial arts movie; it is not about violence, or formula.
art thinking mind
Everything too fast is not good but everything too slow is also not good. You need balance. That's why I like martial arts: it always tells you how to control your body, your mind, your heart. Balance. Balance can keep the world's peace. I think that's a very good thing.
