proud be-proud who-you-are
You have to be proud of who you are.
beautiful eye long
I went to South Africa on safari and came eye to eye with a beautiful leopard. We were so close; I was staring at him for a long time and I felt a recognition with my own nature.
beautiful dark thinking
Storms and darkness scared me, but somehow it encouraged me to learn about nature and I think nothing's dark, dark is beautiful too.
dream believe innocence
Like, you can find your dream, if you firmly believe. You have to have the innocence, and you have to have the daringness to trust.
quality actresses directors
What I like about being an actress is that it keeps you feminine. Being a director and producer makes you manly and very masculine and I don't like that quality in a woman. But I'll do it when the film is very close to me.
flower guy plastic-flowers
I'm a romantic, and I like guys to bring flowers and buy some gifts - not expensive things, just romantic things.
actors chance take-a-chance
Johnny Depp is one of my favorite actors because he takes chances.
winning one-day actresses
I'm one of the best actresses. One day I will win an Oscar.
fun adventure thinking
I think I'm open to adventures and surprises. As a performer, I'm really just naturally talented. And those roles may not look as good on paper, but I know how to create them on screen. I like to have fun and interpret my roles in my own way.
thinking different culture
English is my second language, but in Hong Kong, they don't know that I'm from China. They think I'm from Hollywood because all the films they see are from here. China and Hong Kong are very different places, but they're starting to merge. Still the culture is very different.
accepting born rhythm
I also like to follow nature's rhythm. In times or places, they have their own rhythm. So you cannot push it. So we must accept that as well. Wherever we're born at this time, we just live it.
children crazy character
I indulged the wild child inside of me - the one that's not aware of danger or fear - for the purity of existence for that character in that film. Of course, behind me they're saying, 'She's crazy!'
wise crazy eight
I often feel like I have this spirit living inside of me, always dressing in like short mini skirts... but then I start to discover myself. So there are eight spirits, mischievous ones, sad ones, handsome ones, wise ones, and crazy ones.
character thinking up-early
I think sometimes I'm more fond of doing the research for the character because you learn so much. Sometimes shooting is really difficult because you wake up early and you're always hurrying. And sometimes I don't know what I'm doing. I'm here and there.
