- Became a Tibetan Buddhist follower in 1988. He was so ardent that he wanted to quit his film career to dedicate himself to practicing his beliefs. His teacher advised him not to, so that he can use his fame and wealth for good.

- At just 11 he won the Chinese national championship in wushu, winning a trip to meet US president Richard Nixon.

When I grow up, I want to defend my one billion Chinese countrymen."

- Turned down a role in the legendary movie Crouching tiger, Hidden dragon as his wife was pregnant and wanted to be by her side.

Quotes
- His view on the world and religion is shaped by the Tibetan Buddhism principles. As such he states that "Every religion boils down to love, to a respect for all living things, to choosing peace over violence as a means of resolving a conflict. The essence is universal; it is only the means to the end that varies."
- While having the indestructible image, he remains a soft person: "I can feel very brave through all the action scenes in front of the people who are on the set, but when a girl comes close to me my face turns red because I'm so shy."
- Decent lessons to teach: "You can beat me up, but don't touch my hair, I will kill you!"
- "We are a global family. The religion is different, the languages are different but we are human beings and we need to help each other."
