Hui Zi famously asked the ancient philosopher Zhuang Zi: “You are not a fish. How can you feel the joy of a fish?”

Hui Zi might as well have paraphrased the Taoist question to Hollywood director Ang Lee: “You are not a cowboy, you are not gay, and you are not really an American. How can you feel the love and agony of gay cowboys during the 1960s in the US?”

On that note, where did Lee get his piercing insight into the minds of unmarried Victorian women in England during Jane Austen’s time?

Lee responded, “I did a women’s movie, and I’m not a woman. I did a gay movie, and I’m not gay. I learned as I went along.”

“Brokeback Mountain”  had been the odds-on favorite for top honors. But “Crash” had strong support for its willingness to address prejudice with its tangled tale of crime and bigotry in the Academy’s hometown.

Lee couldn’t hide his disappointment backstage.

“I don’t know the answer,” he said when asked why “Brokeback” didn’t end up as best picture. “I was backstage, enjoying the kind of buildup I was familiar with. It was a surprise this year for me.”

China heaped praise Tuesday on Taiwanese director Lee Ang for winning this year’s best director Oscar with his gay romance “Brokeback Mountain.”

“Ang Lee is the pride of Chinese people all over the world, and he is the glory of Chinese cinematic talent,” the official China Daily newspaper said in a front-page news article.

With so much to do, Sun isn’t thinking about that quirk in his title. "The company is not actively seeking a replacement," he says. "And I have no plans to leave." For that, NetEase investors can be grateful.

　　我学习了毛主席的著作以后，懂得了不少道理，心里感到特别亮堂，工作越干越有劲，只觉得有股劲永远也使不完。

    　　我为了群众尽了一点应当的义务，党却给了我极大的荣誉，去年我被评为先进工作者，出席了鞍山市青年建设积极分子大会，这完全是党的培养，是毛主席思想给了我无穷的力量，是广大群众支持的结果。

　　我要永远的记住：

　　一滴水只有放进大海里才能永远不干，

　　一个人只有当他把自己和集体融合一起的时候才能有力量。

　　力量从团结来，智慧从劳动来，

　　行动从思想来，荣誉从集体来。

"[Men] really disgust me if they don’t have a nice smile, nice lips and nice teeth…They have too many disgusting habits - like scratching themselves all the time. And it’s really weird how guys think that passing gas is the funniest thing in the world. They love to do that thing in front of girls and laugh about it."

"I didn’t expect it to happen like this, wrapping one film and flying out to do a new one the next day. But I’m fresh enough and ambitious enough to stay up all night for the sake of a job. I’m not gonna take it easy. I want to do so much more when I’m getting these great opportunities."

"In every movie they want you to look as thin as you can look. In Selena, it was the other way around: ‘How can we shoot her butt so it looks like Selena’s?’"

"I was in third grade when Rapper’s Delight changed my life. But when I came home, my mother would be listening to Celia Cruz, Tito Puente, Diana Ross. I want to include all those elements in my music."

"I can’t try to be Whitney or Faith. I have something else to offer to anybody who’ll want to, you know, get down."

"Massages. They?re the only thing that can really relax me. I like it hard. Don?t try to come and tickle me with your fingers, or you can get out."

"I saw West Side Story with Latin People like me, and I knew that I wanted to perform."

"If you kiss on the first date and it?s not right, then there will be no second date. Sometimes it?s better to hold out and not kiss for a long time. I am a strong believer in kissing being very intimate, and the minute you kiss, the floodgates open for everything else."

"Beauty is only skin deep. I think what’s really important is finding a balance of mind, body and spirit. Somebody said to me not too long ago, ‘Until you’re twenty, you have the face you are born with, and after that you have the face you deserve’, and I really loved that - the idea that you wear who you are on your face."
