I was basically a broke student, and I moved to Asia and was making some money to go back to school. One thing led to another, and I was supposed to stay two months, but it ended up being eight years. It was the best mistake I ever made.

More quotes by Maggie Q
When I was young, I remember having a particular pain about injustice. Suffering hurt me.
Maggie Q
I don't do anything but sleep, when I'm not working. I have no life. I'm no fun. All I want to do is sleep and get ready for the next day. It's awesome.
Maggie Q
There is nothing cooler than having lines like, 'Batman, the fate of the world is upon us.' Who gets to say that? And who gets to say that in a deep, earnest, amazingly sexy way?
Maggie Q
I went back to China and did a movie in Mandarin, and I don't speak Mandarin, so I learned it phonetically. Now, when I'm on set and somebody gives me English lines, I'm like, Are you kidding? What's happening? This is amazing!
Maggie Q
The 1970s 'Wonder Woman' was sort of a kitsch thing. It was a very specific time for that, and it's hard to modernize something like that.
Maggie Q
I know young people are all going to have different passions, but I would say that if you happen to have a heart for animals, never forget that without your voice, there is no channel for them.
Maggie Q
You should see me during an action film. I look like an abuse victim.
Maggie Q
I like PETA as a group for many reasons, but one of the reasons that I admire them is that they say and do the things that other groups won't do.
Maggie Q
I'm bringing what I've always wanted: film quality work on television. That's the way it should be.
Maggie Q
It's just cool for a girl to be able to do her own thing. I do a lot of movies, and I'm very lucky, and I'm not complaining. But in movies, alongside big action men, we've always got to take a step back and let the men shine.
Maggie Q
We rarely grow when we're happy, we grow when we hurt.
Maggie Q
I've gotten used to the point where I'm so used to being sweaty! I like to wear less makeup and be tougher!
Maggie Q
I weirdly feel very natural, in the physicality that comes my way, whether it's guns, cars or whatever. For some reason, it's second nature to me.
Maggie Q
My manager's biggest dream is for me to be on Letterman. She says, 'Oh, Maggie, will you promise me you'll be on 'Letterman?” What can I say? I just tell her I can't promise, but I'll try my best.
Maggie Q
Our choices are going to determine the future for our children, our children’s children, and their children. I take that responsibility very seriously.
Maggie Q
People always ask how there are female priests, but in this world there are.
Maggie Q
I'm just totally into being strong. There's something about wanting to get a jar or whatever out of a high cupboard, or moving a sofa over because my dog's bone rolled under it, and not having to call anyone for help. There's comfort in that.
Maggie Q
When people go through tragic circumstances, it's not that there is no love there, but it's so hard to deal with and sometimes the gap starts to happen.
Maggie Q
We've all, at some point in our lives, been in a position where we have felt powerless.
Maggie Q
The United Nations four or five years ago put out a study that said the meat industry, meat-eating, growing meat for food is the No. 1 killer of our planet - not No. 2 or No. 3: No 1. You know what’s No. 2? Transportation. Everyone thinks that No. 1 is transportation, and goes out and buys a hybrid car. Screw the hybrid cars. Don’t eat hamburgers.
