[On her role in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004)] "A lot of my friends asked, `what`s it like working with Jude Law? He`s so handsome!` I said, `well, I`m lucky; I got to kick his butt.`"

I was in Asia and people asked me about being considered sex symbol. I don`t know if that`s good or not, because where I come from, sex isn`t something you`re allowed to talk about.

I also like to follow nature`s rhythm. In times or places, they have their own rhythm. So you cannot push it. So we must accept that as well. Wherever we`re born at this time, we just live it.

I often feel like I have this spirit living inside of me, always dressing in like short mini skirts... but then I start to discover myself. So there are eight spirits, mischievous ones, sad ones, handsome ones, wise ones, and crazy ones.

Yeah, well my name is Bai Ling. That means white spirit, and I really feel like sometimes I`m not existing.

But somehow I feel like still it`s a gift, and I wonder, how can I give this gift to others? Just work hard, and do whatever I can do, to be that, and to return the love to the fans. I like to give them joy and smiles to them. Give back to them.

I`m very private in person. I`m very sensitive and shy with men individually. But when I`m talking, maybe there`s this other channel or this other side and other way of working in my mind, and I convert and become carefree.

We`re all sisters and brothers. So like color and those issues now, if we dealt with it much, much less, the world would be much more beautiful.

I`m a person that doesn`t have that many goals or plans. I feel like I`m the wind and I blow through life; it`s whatever comes to me. I very much respect nature. Whatever happens to me, I`m happy and I embrace it.

I think sometimes I`m more fond of doing the research for the character because you learn so much. Sometimes shooting is really difficult because you wake up early and you`re always hurrying. And sometimes I don`t know what I`m doing. I`m here and there.

I worked with a wild leopard, who bit me. But I kept on working with him, because I have a wild side. I think I was an animal in a previous life.
