I have no enemies and no hatred.

Hatred is corrosive of a person's wisdom and conscience; the mentality of enmity can poison a nation's spirit, instigate brutal life and death struggles, destroy a society's tolerance and humanity, and block a nation's progress to freedom and democracy.

I hope that I will be the last victim in China's long record of treating words as crimes.

I have no enemies and no hatred.

Now the entire world has its eyes on China.

My tendency to idealize Western civilization arises from my nationalistic desire to use the West in order to reform China. But this has led me to overlook the flaws of Western culture.

Life is priceless even to an ant.
