The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Daniel Dae Kim
- It’s one thing to talk about lack of diversity and lack of representation. But that doesn’t matter if you’re not good at what you’re supposed to be doing.
- My wife will tell you it’s the little things, like driving my boys to school on my days off so she can rest. We’re not into PDA, but every time we end a phone conversation, we say ‘sarang,’ which means love in Korean.
- It takes facing obstacles to grow strong enough to overcome them.
- I grew up in a steel town, and at the time, when I was a kid, there weren’t any Asian families in the area. So it had its challenges.
- I’ve always been really interested in the age of the samurai in Japan.
- When you look at what’s written under the Statue of Liberty, it’s the immigrant story. It’s about ‘bring me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.’ It’s not about ‘only bring me only your rich, your wealthy, your smart.’
- My dad even likes to give me career advice. I’ll let him know about some offers about films and TV shows that I get, and he’ll ask me questions like, ‘What’s the money like?’ and ‘Who got this for you – was it your agent or manager, and what are they getting out of this?’
- I like to think that I’m not as ominous in real life.
- As an actor, I was often shielded from the big-picture decisions. But as a producer, I experience all the conversations where there’s pushback or a difference of opinion.
- I’m such a fan of films and books like ‘Lord of the Rings’ and even ‘Star Wars,’ despite the fact that, as an actor, I’ll never be employed by them.
