Without freedom of speech, there is no modern world, just a barbaric one.

The tragic reality of today is reflected in the true plight of our spiritual existence. We are spineless and cannot stand straight.

The art always wins. Anything can happen to me, but the art will stay.

I don't believe in a sense of home.

This so-called contemporary art is not a form, but a philosophy of society.

At the moment about 350,000 students return to China from abroad each year - 350,000 young and educated people. I know about them because they know me and often ask me in the street if they can take a selfie with me. These folks are creative and ironic, and the government can ultimately not control what is going on in their heads.

Any individual can contribute its own belief. And our society or even our government are made by the people. The people would have the final voice, but it requires each individual to act. If we don't act, then the result is very clear. So for too long Americans take liberty as granted. We think we are in the safe hand, the democracy and the liberty, which is not true. And it can be even getting much worse than today.
