Hero shows you how to solve the problem - yourself.

My wife wanted my children to have some Chinese culture and education. She believes the children need to learn two languages and two cultures.

Zhang Yimou tried to use martial arts to talk about Chinese culture, Chinese people. What do they think, what do they want and what do they hope.

This film "Hero" talks about the peace of Chinese people.

I study more of truth and enlightening. I had to go the next level to talk about life.

Hero shows you how to solve the problem - yourself.

I need to talk about Chinese culture. We have deep, strong philosophy and culture. I want to share some information, tell the worldwide audience.

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

I've been learning martial arts since I was 8 years old.

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

I never stopped studying Buddhism. In the past few years, in between movies, I do a retreat.

Zhang is a friend of mine: he said forget about acting and just do normal things in the movie.

You can use martial arts to tell a different story. Ang Lee used martial arts in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" to talk about love.

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.

Zhang Yimou is an artist. Sometimes we did only two or three shots a day because we were waiting for the sun.

Wushu is a move in Chinese, a physical move. An attack. Wushu is like an art.

I believe the world is one big family, and we need to help each other.

I knew nothing about martial arts. The coach told me I was talented with learning martial arts, and put me in a school. Three years later I got my first championship in China.

Bruce Lee was very famous. I watched his movies and he is amazing. He is a martial arts master, his philosophy, his movement, both physically and mentally, were very strong.

I want to thank my mum, my daddy, my coach, my teacher, everybody in my life.

A weapon isn't good or bad, depends on the person who uses it.

Every President that went to China, I would meet them and have dinner and talk about the past and the future. That was in the '70s.

Love is more powerful than kicking ass.

Zhang Yimou is one of the best directors on mainland China.

I spend more time learning about Buddhism than English, which is why my English today is still bad.

In the States, you can buy Chinese food. In Beijing you can buy hamburger. It's very close. Now I feel the world become a big family, like a really big family. You have many neighbors. Not like before, two countries are far away.

My wife is the boss at home, and my daughters are the bosses. I am just the worker. We are a very warm family and very happy.

This film 'Hero' talks about the peace of Chinese people.

While films are a very visual and emotional artistic medium, video games take it one step further into the realm of a unique personal experience.

You can use martial arts to tell a different story. Ang Lee used martial arts in 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon' to talk about love.

I believe the world is one big family and we need to help each other.

Hong Kong film audiences are very quiet. Its their culture.

Wushu is the Chinese word for all forms of traditional Chinese Martial Arts. The word Wushu means the 'Are of Not Fighting'; The true Meaning Behind the real Martial Arts.

Wushu it is a philosophy of life. It is designed for defense, and not offense. It is a way to bring you mind back, and body into focus.

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

I think as far as I've been able to understand from my friends that I went to college with and things like that is that it almost seems like Russian Roulette when you're coming out of the closet to your parents.

So dull and dark are the November days. The lazy mist high up the evening curled, And now the morn quite hides in smoke and haze; The place we occupy seems all the world.

If we wait until our lives are free from sorrow or difficulty, then we wait forever. And miss the entire point.

The horrible truth is we are linear beings; we can't multitask, and we shouldn't keep interrupting important connections to each other with the latest message coming in.

Performing live on stage is such a community, whether it's my musicians or a cast of a show that I'm in. And then when you're in the studio or on set, it's a much more solitary experience. Both can serve me at different times in my life. And when I go back and forth from one to the other, it helps me appreciate all of them much better.

After September 11, I don't think people really believe things like this are all that important.

You can’t look back, you just have to put the past behind you, and find something better in your future.

One does not love a place the less for having suffered in it, unless it has been all suffering, nothing but suffering.

I saw leaving college as an opportunity to do something different with my life. I always thought that becoming an academic was going to be my path.

Instruction does much but encouragement everything.

Everyone seemed to be doing well except me and my career. And my accent was no helping me any.

Certainly the party counts a considerable number of intellectuals among its members, but I am by no means disposed to apologise for that.

I want the little lassies who are thinking of going to a nightclub in Cardiff to stop to see what that guy's screaming for, or Grandma to put her knitting down to see why that guy's chatting about Alexander the Great. I'm after pulling in, whether it's in Manila, Beijing or whatever, the biggest possible audience.

I went to a great church here in L.A., gave my heart to the Lord and felt freedom from things I've carried throughout my life that I just thought, 'I don't have to carry them any more.'
