I will make action movies, I think, for a few more years, another five years.
Jackie Chan
If you're too free, you're like the way Hong Kong is now. It's very chaotic.
Jackie Chan
Most of the time, I'm not even working I'm just helping people, because I feel that I am too lucky.
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
Bruce Lee brought the martial arts movie to the attention of the world - and without him, I don't think that anyone would have ever heard of Jackie Chan.

China produces 600 movies in a year, of which 3 or 4 go abroad, while of the several hundred they make, we only bring in 50. It's 50 now, but that could be expanded later on.
Jackie Chan
I've been preparing [Chinese Zodiac] for seven years, spent seven years on writing the script, spent over a year on filming it.
Jackie Chan
The life of an action star is very short. I want to be an actor like Robert De Niro , like Dustin Hoffman or Clint Eastwood who in their 70s or 80s can still act.
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
I want to be an Asian Robert De Niro.
Jackie Chan
I make American films for American audiences and Asian films for Asian audiences.
Jackie Chan
I've seen too many ups and downs in the movie industry.
Jackie Chan
Actually, the few good Chinese movies that foreign countries choose to import are Zhang Yimou's, and mine, a few directors, but how many movies can we make in a year? We can only make a few, while they turn them out continuously.
Jackie Chan
When I'm in meetings until 5am and then have to get up two hours later for filming, sometimes I ask myself 'why?'
Jackie Chan
We learn martial arts as helping weakness. You never fight for people to get hurt. You're always helping people.
