More quotes by Jackie Chan
My schedule goes: wake up, running, exercise, downstairs, running shoes off, then to the shower. That's the Jackie Chan diary.
Jackie Chan
Before I do a stunt, I have to make sure it is safe.
Jackie Chan
Why did I become Jackie Chan? Mostly because I work very hard. When people were sleeping, I was still training.
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
When life knocks you down, you can choose to get back up.
Jackie Chan
I make American films for American audiences and Asian films for Asian audiences.
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.
Jackie Chan
I want to build up my philosophy... my philosophy with kung fu is to respect people.
Jackie Chan
I have a metal plate in my head, and can pop my shoulder and pop it back.
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
When I was young I didn't care about education, just money and box office.
Jackie Chan
Even during the promotion I told people that I didn't like Rush Hour. The jokes I didn't understand and the fighting, compared to my Hong Kong films was terrible. A lot of people didn't like it. But mostly people did like it, they really liked it. Rush Hour really brought me to the American family audience.
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 show audiences I can act.
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
My affection for Taiwan... is witnessed by everyone. My wife is Taiwanese and I am a son-in-law of Taiwan. I am half Taiwanese.
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
Stigma hurts. Because of AIDS, children are bullied, isolated and shut out of school. They are missing out on education. They are missing out on medicines. Children are missing your love, care and protection. Join me. And become a stigma buster. UNITE FOR CHILDREN UNITE AGAINST AIDS
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
The ads all call me fearless, but that's just publicity. Anyone who thinks I'm not scared out of my mind whenever I do one of my stunts is crazier than I am.
