1. Life is such a process, a process of constantly transcending one's own limitations. This is destiny, and it is the same for everyone. In this process, we encounter pain, transcend limitations, and feel happiness. So all people are equal, we are nothing special. ——Shi Tiesheng's "Broken Pens Between Illnesses"

2. I will always retain a prejudice: women are the most suitable to be doctors, and white coats are their most elegant clothing. ——Shi Tiesheng "Me and the Temple of Earth"

3. The real name of man is: desire. ——Shi Tiesheng's "The Temple of Earth and Me"

4. The world of eternal dreams allows me to face death more calmly than the world of reality - it's like when you say goodbye to your hometown, I still miss her, and I still don’t want to come back.

——Shi Tiesheng's "Things of the Soul"
