More quotes by Jackie Chan
Coffee is a language in itself.
Jackie Chan
When I work I do it from my heart. And my heart is that I bring love to the world. When I travel around the world I bring my love. I bring so much love in my heart. I hope you can feel that.
Jackie Chan
I think the family movie is very important to everybody right now.
Jackie Chan
Sometimes you think the movie is good and BOOM! Sometimes you think it's no good. BAAM! The movie business is a big gamble. You never know.
Jackie Chan
For me the greatest source of income is still movies. Nothing - stocks, financial speculation, real estate speculation or businesses - makes more money for me than making movies.
Jackie Chan
I want to be an Asian Robert De Niro.
Jackie Chan
Of course I get hurt.
Jackie Chan
We live now in a global village and we are in one single family. It's our responsibility to bring friendship and love from all different places around the world and to live together in peace.
Jackie Chan
I hope I can make some Hollywood-type action films like 'Batman' or 'Spiderman', action films like that. With some wire work, maybe wearing a mask. Like that.
Jackie Chan
I think every young child can learn through any martial art. They would then learn to respect their life, respect their parents, respect their country, and respect the whole world.
Jackie Chan
Nothing makes me more determined to succeed than someone telling me something's impossible.
Jackie Chan
I just couldn't stop thinking about what landmines are doing to people here. I told people - my friends - about it, but it was just not enough. I knew I had to do more.
Jackie Chan
The action star's life is very short. Back in Asia, I can do whatever I want to do. I'm the producer, I'm the director, I can do so many things, but in Hollywood any time I present a script they say: No, no, no, Rush Hour 3, Rush Hour 4.
Jackie Chan
I sometimes just don't like to see the Ultimate Fighting. I just find it, as a martial artist, I just find it too violent.
Jackie Chan
Kung fu lives in everything we do. It lives in how we put on a jacket and how we take off a jacket. It lives in how we treat people. Everything is kung fu.
Jackie Chan
I really hope someday in Hollywood, some producer or director will hire me only to do drama.
Jackie Chan
I have a metal plate in my head, and can pop my shoulder and pop it back.
Jackie Chan
Making a Hollywood film you don't have a very big movie because they have a Safety Captain and insurance people on the set. They have to check first. 'Don't do it. Let me check. Make sure everything is safe.'
Jackie Chan
My wish is to bring my heroes to the big screen, and many of them have already appeared in my films.
Jackie Chan
It is totally different making films in the East than in the West. In the East, I make my own Jackie Chan films, and it's like my family. Sometimes I pick up the camera because I choreograph all the fighting scenes, even when I'm not fighting. I don't have my own chair. I just sit on the set with everybody.
