'This is the American dream!' said Quan, who is the second Asian Best Supporting Actor winner in Academy Awards history (via TooFab)
Quan was presented the award by last year's Best Supporting Actor and Actress winners Troy Kotsur and Ariana DeBose, whose voice broke with emotion as she read Quan's name. The actor received a standing ovation, and was already in tears when he took the stage.
"My mom is 84 years old, and she's at home watching. Mom -- I just won an Oscar!" Quan began."My journey started with a boat. I spent a year in a refugee camp, and somehow I ended up here on Hollywood's biggest stage." "They say stories like this only happen in the movies. I cannot believe it's happening to me," he continued."This, this is the American dream!"
The 51-year-old went on to thank the Academy, A24, and his loved ones, before giving a heartfelt shoutout to his"'Goonies' brother for life," Jeff Cohen. "Dreams are something you have to believe in. I almost gave up on mine. To all of you out there, please keep your dreams alive," Quan added, before then concluding his emotional speech."Thank you, thank you so much for welcoming me back. I love you."
