The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Benedict Wong
- In terms of representation, television is reflecting an era that has passed. It’s the wrong time; it’s the wrong period. In all sorts of television, it doesn’t feel like the 21st century.
- I feel like we are reintroducing historical figures, with the explorer Marco Polo and the grandson of Genghis Khan, Kublai Khan, the ruler of the Mongol empire, the trading place that everybody wanted to get involved in.
- I’ve been really pleasantly surprised by ‘Guardians of the Galaxy.’ I’d never really heard of that gang before, that comic series before. And I think when you go into those, watching those sort of films, you watch them with no expectation as well, so you’re always kind of pleasantly surprised, I think.
- People call me Benny. And as long as they put Benedict on my paycheck, I don’t care.
- Occasionally, when you do a take, and – what I kind of sort of like is asking for a PPB – Personal Play Back.
- Bruce Lee has always been a hero of mine, and the choreography in ‘Enter The Dragon’ is amazing.
- Kublai noticed this uncommon perception that Marco Polo has, with the idea to explain and talk about his country so vividly that he can see it.
- It’s really hard because obviously people label you as a British East Asian actor. And I’m just from Salford; it’s where I was born.
- In America, you’re just an American. You’re accepted. It doesn’t matter that you’re of whatever race. If anything, I’m British, and that’s it. So let’s just get on with it, really.
- Ridley Scott is a cinematic master and a great man. It was a real honour working with him on ‘Prometheus.’
