"So why don't you abandon them?
Let yourself be free.
This world is bigger than what we always believe in.
So why don't you try to fade out from your dream of dreams?
Try to take the other risks.
Your life should not be like this.
Every color we can be." ​​​
Among other things, you'll find that you're not the first person who was ever confused and frightened and even sickened by human behavior. You're by no means alone on that score, you'll be excited and stimulated to know. Many, many men have been just as troubled morally and spiritually as you are right now. Happily, some of them kept records of their troubles. You'll learn from them—if you want to. Just as someday, if you have something to offer, someone will learn something from you. It's a beautiful reciprocal arrangement. And it isn't education. It's history. It's poetry.

In his final lecture before standing trial, with references to Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King Jr., he remarked that when the nights were dark, all one could do was to look to the stars. Reading that, I thought of the time when I offensively asked him what the United States could do to help, his reply was blunt: nothing, just be an example to the world. Citizenship had to be cultivated, he said, adamant that Hong Kongers must be the guardians of their own future.
