More quotes by Jackie Chan
As one tale ends, so another begins.
Jackie Chan
I will make action movies, I think, for a few more years, another five years.
Jackie Chan
Coffee is a language in itself.
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
We have to do what we can to help wherever and whenever it is possible for us to help.
Jackie Chan
If you're too free, you're like the way Hong Kong is now. It's very chaotic.
Jackie Chan
I now have two different audiences. There's the one that has been watching my action films for 20 years, and the American family audience. American jokes, less fighting.
Jackie Chan
I hate violence, yes I do. It's kind of a dilemma, huh?.
Jackie Chan
I allowed myself to be bullied because I was scared and didn't know how to defend myself. I was bullied until I prevented a new student from being bullied. By standing up for him, I learned to stand up for myself.
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
Cinema reflects culture and there is no harm in adapting technology, but not at the cost of losing your originality.
Jackie Chan
The children right now, the young children, everybody should go to a martial arts school. Why? Because as soon as they go to a martial arts school, they learn discipline.
Jackie Chan
When I got depressed, I watched Bruce Lee movies. I learned everything from Bruce Lee.
Jackie Chan
After all those years in Asia, I don't have to do promotion anymore. We just release a Jackie Chan movie and - Boom! - people go.
Jackie Chan
Of course I get hurt.
Jackie Chan
A lot of people ask me when I do a stunt, 'Jackie, are you scared?' Of course I'm scared. I'm not Superman.
Jackie Chan
In every movie I do have a dialogue.
Jackie Chan
I'm tired of fighting. I've always known that I can't be an action star all my life.
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
American stuntmen are smart - they think about safety. When they do a jump in a car, they calculate everything: the speed, the distance... But in Hong Kong, we don't know how to count. Everything we do is a guess. If you've got the guts, you do it. All of my stuntmen have gotten hurt.
