The intensity of the Premier League is incredible. The levels of fitness you have to reach just to survive in it is absurd.

I want to be Arsenal captain.

When I was 18 or 19, I would come into training, and I'd be the last in and first out. I was one of those that took everything for granted, and I'm honest about that now.

Football was a natural thing for me, and with no injuries or injury history that would stop me from training, I just enjoyed coming in every day and playing; then it was taken away from me.

I know my body better. I know how to be more professional. I know how to get myself ready for the games, which is the most important thing.

Paolo Di Canio was my all-time hero.

It's difficult when you have a new baby but, at the same time, a nice distraction.

I went to Bournemouth and had a great time. The idea was just to prove to myself that I can still play at that level.

No 10 is the job I want: in the middle of things, moving the ball forward.

You need to be able to defend. It's massively important, and at Arsenal, we've sometimes been guilty of forgetting that.

I play the way I do because it's the Arsenal way.

I'm probably the worst fantasy league player ever. I don't really score that often, and I get booked quite a lot as well - when you get booked, you lose points.

I am a player who always wants to give more.

My family have always been West Ham fans, so growing up, I used to go and watch them, and so I was a West Ham supporter.

The fans at Upton Park are great.

Owen Coyle was great to me.

The Arsenal fans are great; every week they are 60,000, and the away support is fantastic.

I don't think you can put into words the feelings you get playing week in and week out.

When I was young at Arsenal, you take it for granted, playing all the time.

Sometimes a manager can only do so much, as in prepare a team, and then the team have to go out there and perform.

I said, even when I was left out, 'I am an England fan, and I'll be supporting the boys.' It's in my blood; it's too hard not to.

I've been in tournaments before when you've been away for a while, and you're not really playing, you're just training. Sometimes you can feel like you're not really part of it.

I want Arsenal to want me. If they didn't want me, it would hurt.

I want to play first-team football.

I want to play in the Premier League, the Champions League, and I want to continue playing for England. If I'm going to do that, I have to play for my club and put in good performances for my club because there are other English midfielders who are doing that in the Premier League.

I am willing to go abroad if the right opportunity comes up.

We have loyalty at Arsenal, and players have shown that in the past.

Certain things come naturally, and tackling wasn't one of them; I'd sometimes go a bit over the top when I was younger.

Coffee is a language in itself.

Do not let circumstances control you. You change your circumstances.

I never wanted to be the next Bruce Lee. I just wanted to be the first Jackie Chan.

Before I do a stunt, I have to make sure it is safe.

Cinema reflects culture and there is no harm in adapting technology, but not at the cost of losing your originality.

Don't try to be like Jackie. There is only one Jackie. Study computers instead.

I'm crazy, but I'm not stupid.

Anyone can be a Superman, but nobody can be Jackie Chan.

I do small things. I try to do good things every day.

I just want people to remember me like I remember Buster Keaton. When they talk about Buster Keaton or Gene Kelly, people say, 'Ah yes, they good.' Maybe one day, they remember Jackie Chan that way.

Chinese people need to be controlled; otherwise, they will do whatever they want.

The ads all call me fearless, but that's just publicity. Anyone who thinks I'm not scared out of my mind whenever I do one of my stunts is crazier than I am.

I'm not sure if it's good to have freedom or not. I'm really confused now.

Now I am older, I understand we have to accept who we are.

More understand China, then more people will have interest in China and more people will come to China to visit us because I am a tourist ambassador.

I know I have to run 20 more minutes if I eat ice cream. Basically, I eat everything, but I just do more training.

Speaking English is like tongue-twist for me. I can speak each word perfect, but then you have to string them together like, 'Blah, blah, blah.' That's when I get crazy.

Sometimes I'd like to play the bad guy and sometimes I'd like to die in a movie.

I want to be in 'Avatar'. I want somebody to hire me to be Superman, a Chinese Superman or Spider-Man.

As a father, I always want my son to be perfect. When he was young, I tried to train him in martial arts, but he said, 'I don't want to become like Bruce Lee's son, with everybody telling me how good my father was.' I just think my son is too lazy.

My wish is to bring my heroes to the big screen, and many of them have already appeared in my films.

For me the greatest source of income is still movies. Nothing - stocks, financial speculation, real estate speculation or businesses - makes more money for me than making movies.
