More quotes by Bai Ling
I had heard about how people struggle and how hard it is to get into acting. But I did not care because it's something I love.
Bai Ling
I went to South Africa on safari and came eye to eye with a beautiful leopard. We were so close I was staring at him for a long time and I felt a recognition with my own nature.
Bai Ling
I also like to follow nature's rhythm. In times or places, they have their own rhythm. So you cannot push it. So we must accept that as well. Wherever we're born at this time, we just live it.
Bai Ling
Because of the Chinese culture of obedience, you don't ask questions... You follow and obey.
Bai Ling
When you're challenged, you're totally alive and totally dealing with reality, particularly if it could be dangerous. And that excites me!
Bai Ling
I think I'm open to adventures and surprises. As a performer, I'm really just naturally talented. And those roles may not look as good on paper, but I know how to create them on screen. I like to have fun and interpret my roles in my own way.
Bai Ling
I guess I feel like it's a gift to meet those talented artists like George Lucas and Oliver Stone, Spike Lee and Richard Kelly. Even if it's a small role, it's a gift to be working that closely with them.
Bai Ling
You have to accept the storms and the rainy days and the things in life that you sometimes don't want to face.
Bai Ling
I'm a person that doesn't have that many goals or plans. I feel like I'm the wind and I blow through life it's whatever comes to me. I very much respect nature. Whatever happens to me, I'm happy and I embrace it.
Bai Ling
I hate shopping. I don't go shopping. If I do, I run in and out.
Bai Ling
Acting to me is real life - I don't act.
Bai Ling
And also, I know I have this responsibility or mission to show people, to encourage them to live their dream, too.
Bai Ling
Like, you can find your dream, if you firmly believe. You have to have the innocence, and you have to have the daringness to trust.
Bai Ling
I'm one of the best actresses. One day I will win an Oscar.
Bai Ling
I often feel like I have this spirit living inside of me, always dressing in like short mini skirts... but then I start to discover myself. So there are eight spirits, mischievous ones, sad ones, handsome ones, wise ones, and crazy ones.
Bai Ling
I think sometimes I'm more fond of doing the research for the character because you learn so much. Sometimes shooting is really difficult because you wake up early and you're always hurrying. And sometimes I don't know what I'm doing. I'm here and there.
Bai Ling
I was in Asia and people asked me about being considered sex symbol. I don't know if that's good or not, because where I come from, sex isn't something you're allowed to talk about.
Bai Ling
What I like about being an actress is that it keeps you feminine. Being a director and producer makes you manly and very masculine and I don't like that quality in a woman. But I'll do it when the film is very close to me.
Bai Ling
Well I think always, when you remake films, I always think the first one is most original, authentic.
Bai Ling
Every woman should shave her head once in her life, to experience what it feels like.
