Ken Jeong’s 5 most popular quotes
- You can have all the tools in the world but if you don’t genuinely believe in yourself, it’s useless.
- There’s really no substitute for working hard. I think that’s my biggest talent. There are always people who are funnier and more talented than I am, but I don’t take anything for granted and I commit myself 100% to each of my roles.
- I’m the guy that no one knows, but everyone’s like, “You’re that guy in that film thing.”
- Medicine really matured me as a person because, as a physician, you’re obviously dealing with life and death issues, issues much more serious than what we’re talking about in entertainment. You can’t get more serious than life and death. And if you can handle that, you can handle anything.
- I’m definitely a people pleaser. I like people to be happy around me and be comfortable. I go out of my way, sometimes to a fault, to make sure everyone is okay.
