Ang Lee Quotes

Sexuality is a big issue, but there are others - how much you commit to a relationship, to social obligation, to honesty and being honest with yourself Picture Quote #1

These days I'm mostly familiar with two parts of L.A.: one is movie culture, and the other is Asian culture. The Westside is work, and the Eastside is Chinese - which means my friends Picture Quote #1

Thinking back to those earlier days, I felt I was weak when I wasn't making movies, and then when I was, I thought I was weak as a family member Picture Quote #1

Directing, I get all kinds of inspiration. It's working with people. It's a lot more fun Picture Quote #1

I wanted to shoot straight, mainstream, somehow off-beat. Not only realistic West, which is quite unfamiliar to the world's population - even to a lot of Americans Picture Quote #1

So many times you see beautiful lovemaking scenes with a lot of exposure or an awkward lovemaking scene, but I think it's very rare that you see it private Picture Quote #1

The most mysterious feminine factor, the existence that we men, we don't know. It's woman. It's feminine. That's what the sword is about. That's the symbolic meaning of the sword Picture Quote #1

The way I go about a lovemaking scene is that we will talk about it during the rehearsing time Picture Quote #1

When I have a full schedule like that, I don't see myself sitting there for a couple of months, doing the research, going through a painful process, it's just not my thing anymore Picture Quote #1

When I see something I like, that's all that counts. What they use, how they get there, I never bother them Picture Quote #1

In my culture, there's a tradition that when you're in an overwhelming situation and you don't know what to do, you put yourself in a woman's shoes Picture Quote #1

Kids don't even read comic books anymore. They've got more important things to do - like video games Picture Quote #1

The woman's perspective is like the dark side of the moon: it always exists, but it is never exposed, at least not in my culture Picture Quote #1

I feel that everyone has a Hulk inside, and each of our Hulks is both scary and, potentially, pleasurable. That's the scariest thing about them Picture Quote #1

I grew up pretty much prevented from knowing anything from Communist China except that they were the bad guys that stole our country Picture Quote #1

I'm a drifter and an outsider. There's not one single environment I can totally belong to Picture Quote #1

There's only one movie in my career I've had regrets with cutting it shorter, and I think some scenes maybe I shouldn't have cut Picture Quote #1

For a filmmaker, it's a rare chance to do a personal film on a big canvas Picture Quote #1

I don't think the Hulk is a superhero. He's the first Marvel character who is a tragic monster. Really an anti-hero Picture Quote #1

I feel like all of my characters now take this congested situation, they clash, and from there you purge yourself Picture Quote #1

I guess in Hollywood you chart your life by Oscars. You say to each other, 'Remember when that movie won that year? It was 2006. Remember that?' Picture Quote #1

I had to find my way of translating the excitement you get when you're reading comic books to the big screen Picture Quote #1

I have two sons in America, and all they care about in Chinese culture is Jackie Chan and Jet Li Picture Quote #1

My mother loves me and everything goes well. I have no conflict with her, so that's not dramatic Picture Quote #1

The L.A. weather is a lot like Taiwan's, where you don't observe four seasons, so the years can pass and you don't feel a thing Picture Quote #1

There's a level of sophistication of filmmaking that's mind-boggling. Anything you need for your movie, there's an establishment that can make it happen really fast Picture Quote #1

I grew up pretty peacefully, in that Eastern way. You easily solve problems, believe in harmony. Reduce conflicts, take orders until one day you give orders Picture Quote #1

I think doing period piece is easier, because after a certain distance, everybody is equal, I think. The relative contemporary is harder. I think that's the way it is Picture Quote #1

Every movie I make, that's my hideout, the place I don't quite understand but feel most at home Picture Quote #1

I see a movie as a way of learning about the world, about myself, and learning about my relationship with people and art Picture Quote #1
