19.11.2007 - Interpretation of dali48
This is an age without prophecies and promises and I think it is a good thing. - The writer playing prophet and judge should also cease since the many prophecies of the past century have all turned out to be frauds. - And there is no need to manufacture new superstitions about the future, it is much better to wait and see! - It would be best also for the writer to revert to the role of witness and strive to present the truth! - For your life is only of value, if you have a lingering attachment to it and it continues to be interesting as there are still things to discover and to amaze you. It is only life that can excite you! - That's exactly how it is with you, isn't it? ... (Gao Xingjian, 1999)
'A comedy, but if people don't have this sense of humor, then it becomes an extremely serious matter, to the extent that the writer should be beaten up, killed, or sent to a labor camp' ... (Gao Xingjian, Life As A Literature Laureate, BBC)
Literature is higher than politics, if not actually above politics ... - 1982 diagnosed with lung cancer. After 2 weeks of qigong (Taoist exercise) doctors were amazed when the tumor disappeared. - I couldn't live without love because the world is so horrible.' - 'I may not believe in ghosts, but I have reverence for what can't be known' ...
