Wang Xiaobo’s classic quotations
? Time flies is everything to a person, and the rest is just a moment of joy and misfortune.
? The quality of human life cannot be measured by life span. His life was as short as a shooting star, but at the moment it existed, it emitted a dazzling light and drew a beautiful curve in the vast night sky
When everything began, There is nothing terrible in this world. I'm just a little afraid of death now. I won’t be afraid anymore after I die.
In other aspects of life, machinery and monotony on a certain level must be tolerated, but thoughts must not be included. Random thoughts are not interesting. Interesting is reasonable and novel. One of the greatest misfortunes in the world we live in is that some people reject novelty altogether.
? According to my opinion, everyone’s nature is to be lazy, lusty and greedy. If you are diligent and frugal and keep yourself as good as jade, you have committed the crime of pretense, which is worse than being lazy, lusty and greedy. Even more hateful.
? If there are too many chickens, they will not lay eggs, and if there are too many women, they will cause trouble.
? Wisdom itself is good. One day we will all die, but there will still be people who are pursuing the path of wisdom. I can't see what happens after death, but when I'm alive, I feel very happy when I think about it.
? There are only two kinds of people in this world: one is people like me, and the other is people who are not like me.
? You know, a road in the suburbs recognizes me. Sometimes, the sky is so blue that it becomes dark, and the clouds in the sky are as white as a protruding fist. At that time, a stupid, stupid kid came along this road. He looked just like the photo I gave you. Later, a dark and thin boy came over. Later, a tall, thin and ugly guy came over. He was terribly lax and surprisingly fond of fantasy. Later, a few decades later, he would never embark on this path. Do you like his story?
? I always thought that, with Hugo’s fraternity, George Bernard Shaw’s wisdom, and Romain Rolland’s clear explanation of what beauty is, people should no longer be That's stupid. Nasty things shouldn't be praised anyway. People who don't have a little bit of deep wisdom can't do anything.
? I firmly believe that the world everyone sees should not be the world in front of them. The world in front of me is nothing more than eating, drinking, sleeping, and sleeping. Is that enough? Also, I get angry when I see people creating crude things that insult people’s wisdom. I get mad when I see people advocating animalistic carnivals.
? Today I thought, I should love others, otherwise I will be ruined. My brother told me that everyone in what I wrote had a pair of devil's eyes. Just like the comment in "Portrait" describing the painter's painting of the church, it is as ruthless. I thought about it, and I'm afraid that's what happened.
? Yaoyao suddenly shouted in a fuss: "Chen Hui, you are a poet! You have a real poet temperament!"
? After growing up in meditation, I Started to like poetry. I've read a lot of poetry, some of it really good poetry. Good poems describe different things, and their rhythms vary, but they all have something in common. It has a crystal-like brilliance, as if it comes from the stars? I really hope to read it forever and break this lonely sea. I wish I could write a poem like this. I wish I was a star too.
When people write, they are always alone. The works are actually personal monologues, letters sent out. I feel that I lack opportunities to communicate with others? I believe this is a common experience for people who write serious literature. But in this world, besides yourself, there are others; besides the people around you, there is also the whole human race. The meaning of writing is to communicate with people. For this reason, I keep writing.
? I believe that imbecility, paranoia, and poverty of thought are the greatest evils. Of course, I don’t want to recommend this standard to others, but I think people who are smart, optimistic, and knowledgeable are more trustworthy than others.
For an intellectual, becoming a thinking elite is more important than becoming a moral elite.
I believe that among all human intellectual activities, there is nothing simpler than making value judgments. If you are a male rabbit, you have the ability to make value judgments - the big bad wolf is bad, the female rabbit is good; however, the rabbit does not know the ninety-nine watches. This fact explains why some people who lack other abilities particularly love the field of value. If you make a value judgment on yourself, you have to pay some price; if you make a value judgment on others, it is too simple and too comfortable. I am indeed ashamed to say such crude words, but I am not sorry. Because such people bring us too much pain
? Eating, drinking, having sex, and being in a daze are all natural human rights. If a person makes a mistake, he can be punished in other ways, but it cannot make him stay in a daze. Otherwise, it will cause a fire
? People living in the world are like standing in front of a maze. There are many clues and many forked roads. Others look east and west and then go all the way. It's past. But we must get lost in it. This is because there is no room for a mystery or anything unresolved in our small minds. So we put all the doubts into our own hearts and confuse ourselves to death.
? Wisdom itself is good. One day we will all die, but there will still be people who are pursuing the path of wisdom. I can't see what happens after death, but when I'm alive, I feel very happy when I think about it
? If a person lives in a kind of irresistible pain, he will put this into consideration. pain as happiness. If you are a pig living in a dark pigsty, you will regard eating pig food as great happiness, so you will forget that sooner or later you will be stabbed. Therefore, the memory of pigs is forced to be like this, and it cannot be said to be inherently bad.
? People living in this world cannot distinguish between happiness and pain. So I just want it to be genuine.
? You must live according to what you want, otherwise you can only think according to life.
? Of course I want to become kinder, but this kind of kindness should be caused by me becoming smarter, not the other way around.
? It is not enough for a person to have this life, he should also have a poetic world.
? When I live in the world, I just want to understand some truths and encounter some interesting things. If it goes as I wish, my life will be considered a success.
? If I can shine, I don’t have to be afraid of the dark. If I were that wonderful, all fear would disappear. So I began to have some hope - if I could do it, then I would have defeated the fate of loneliness.
? China’s humanistic intellectuals have a sense of mission to take the world as their own responsibility, and always feel that they should create something that the common people can believe in. The weird thing about this idea is that they not only want to be pastors and theologians, but also want to be God (not called God in Chinese, but "saint"). It's a pity that what people should believe and to what extent they should believe it doesn't matter what you say. This is regrettable. There is another thing that is not regrettable, but fatal: you are also a common people, so if you don't do it well, you will eat your own shit. Chinese intellectuals have never understood this aspect, so they often end up harming themselves.
? These things remind me of Mr. Foucault’s words: Discourse is power. This should be said the other way around: rights are words.
? Chinese scholars have always had the tradition of selling powerful pills and like to make witty remarks to impress the gods. This creates an atmosphere in which nothing but Daliwan-style knowledge is knowledge. Under this kind of pressure, we sometimes want to say a few surprising words, but we suffer from a lack of imagination. ;
