Freedom of expression is the foundation of human rights, the source of humanity, and the mother of truth.

The free world led by the U.S. fought almost all regimes that trampled on human rights.

The Internet is truly God's gift to the Chinese people.

China after Olympics will progress very slowly. But the demands for freedom - on the part of ordinary people but also party members - won't be as easy to contain.

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 viewed the West as if it were not only the salvation of China but also the natural and ultimate destination of all humanity.
