More quotes by Zhang Ziyi
From beginning to end I worried that Ang Lee wouldn't be satisfied with my work. So I worked as hard as I could to earn his trust, because you only get a chance like this once.
Zhang Ziyi
I wanted to escape so badly. But of course I knew I couldn't just give up and leave school. It was only when I heard my mom's voice that I came out of my hiding place.
Zhang Ziyi
Chinese women are much more modest than American women when it comes to clothes. We tend to show less flesh.
Zhang Ziyi
People who trust me will not be swayed by what's been said about me, and for people who don't, no amount of good reports will persuade them.
Zhang Ziyi
Obviously I'd love to work with any of these great directors because every time I've worked with them I've gained a tremendous amount as an actor. Each director has his own way of pushing you towards improving yourself.
Zhang Ziyi
There's nothing in Chinese culture that is an equivalent of the geisha. It's so different, so special to Japan.
Zhang Ziyi
Absolutely not, because in acting I've found a domain that suits me perfectly. And that is so utterly rare.
Zhang Ziyi
There was one very special scene at the end of the film. My character, Zhao Di, has been sick. She wakes up and her mother tells her that the man she loves has come back from the city and had spent the day by her bedside.
Zhang Ziyi
They're not willing to admit that I've also shed blood and tears and often paid dearly for my success. This makes me feel extremely sad.
Zhang Ziyi
Wanting to be in a Western film won't get me very far. Unless the opportunity arose, it doesn't matter how much I want to be in one. But if an opportunity did arise, no actor would pass it up.
Zhang Ziyi
China's cinema has been rising for some time it has more exposure, so my chances of becoming internationally known are better. But the first thing I have to do is learn English. If I can grasp the language, then perhaps I can think about the U.S.
Zhang Ziyi
Most people spend their whole lives looking for the right job. There are others who never get an opportunity to do work that fulfils them.
Zhang Ziyi
I wanted to become a kindergarten teacher like my mother.
Zhang Ziyi
From my opinion, 'geisha' means a woman skilled in the arts. Like dancing, singing and playing musical instruments.
Zhang Ziyi
Whatever you see - any good results - are all from the pressure.
Zhang Ziyi
Yes. Otherwise I could have done a lot of Hollywood movies. After Crouching Tiger I got a lot of offers, but I turned them down because they were all victim roles - poor girls sold to America to be a wife or whatever. I know I have the ability to go deeper, to take on more original roles than that.
Zhang Ziyi
I knew nothing about martial arts. And I don't really like it! But in the film, I not only had to pretend that I knew all about it, I had to be the best at it. That was very difficult.
Zhang Ziyi
I always think it's really hard if you are Asian or Chinese to be really in Hollywood. There are not so many really great characters for you.
Zhang Ziyi
Even though I've done Hollywood films, I still don't think of myself as a Hollywood actress.
Zhang Ziyi
I'm not really interested in politics, because I think it's just too removed from my own life. If there's a war, though, or a disaster, I want to know what's happening.
Zhang Ziyi
