“The hoopla, the applause, the praises have never excited me.” — Martin Yan Quote

“The hoopla, the applause, the praises have never excited me.”

“At thirteen, when I arrived in Hong Kong after leaving China, I made a living by working in a restaurant.”

“Some people never contribute anything positive to society, they may even drain our resources, but most of us try to do something better, to give back.”

“Applause, it's very nice, of course. But when you're giving, and creating, and then there is the silence of everyone sitting there, listening, waiting, that is great.”

“Glorious bouquets and storms of applause are the trimmings which every artist naturally enjoys.”

“All of us love applause, and so we should - it means that the listener likes us!”
