I do small things. I try to do good things every day.
The kids never listen to you, especially the youngest ones.
I don't want to be an action star, an action star's life is so short. I want my life to get longer, I want my career to get longer.
Sometimes I do need to go to karaoke, sometimes I need to relax.
Every time I make American film I just trust American directors and American writers.
I make American films for American audiences and Asian films for Asian audiences.
I love animals. When I was young, I had two St. Bernards, I still have a dog, I have a lot of cats in my company. My wife always says, "You spend a lot of money on animals. More than even me!"
I hate interviews - but you have to do them.
Pain is my daily routine. As long as I don't go to the hospital, it's nothing for me.
Olympics for me is love, peace, united.
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.
We live now in a global village and we are in one single family. It's our responsibility to bring friendship and love from all different places around the world and to live together in peace.
Officials of governments that use or produce landmines should be forced to see the reality of how landmines hurt people and make them suffer, because this would surely make them stop.
When I was young I didn't care about education, just money and box office.
