HERO is a combination of my personal feeling and the commercialism.

Now a movie with 30 million returns would be something very incredible and the producer can only get 10 to 15 million. This is only 100 thousands US dollars. This is not enough!

Piracy has destroyed the domestic market.

Under the big political umbrella, a man is just like a leaf in the ocean, with no control of his destiny and does not have any choice.

The so-called commercialism includes elements like story, plots, rhythms and large big scenes.

People in misery is what most important in art.

To do art, one thing should always remember - subjects of people in misery have deep meanings.

People have become shallower. They view spending, entertaining, seeking leisure and enjoying as the main objectives of their life.

Wuxia is a fantasy world exists in everyone's mind.

I must stick with Chinese language films.

This is my first wuxia movie and I must consider this before trying to make something with my own.

The names of entities that have the power to constrain us change with time. Convention and authority are replaced by infirmity. But my attitude toward them has not changed. Has not changed.

You should feel good about yourself because of your accomplishments. Not because somebody yelled at you to feel good about yourself.

Steve Bruce is like a cat on hot tin bricks.

All the troubles of life come upon us because we refuse to sit quietly for a while each day in our rooms.

Half of the time I don't know what they're talking about; their jokes seem to relate to a past that everyone but me has shared. I'm a foreigner in the world and I don't understand the language.

Doubtful prayer is no prayer at all.

Australia turns out to be a sensational place, albeit one of the most comfortably racist places I've ever been in. They've really settled into their intolerance like an old resentful slipper.

River Song: Right, I have questions. But number one is this: what in the name of sanity have you got on your head? The Doctor: It's a fez. I wear a fez now. Fezzes are cool.

The complexity of the world is so overwhelming and so present to everyone.

It is not only our duty to pray for others, but also to desire the prayers of others for ourselves.
