Anchee Min Quotes
I Felt Tired, But I Pitched The Ball Back At Her. You Want Me To Talk About Myself, Right? Let Me Tell You What 'self' Means To Me. The Self, Myself, The Self As I See It, Is Composed Mainly Of Selected Memories From My History. I Am Not What I Am Doing Now. I Am What I Have Done, And The Edited Version Of My Past Seems More Real To Me Than What I Am At This Moment. I Don't Know Who Or What I Really Am. The Present Is Fleeting And Intangible. No One In China Wants To Talk About His Past, Because Nobody Wants To Paint His Face Black. Our Past Is Not A Flattering Picture, And No One Wants To Look At It For Long. Yet What We Were In Fixed And Final. It Is The Basis For Predictions Of What We Will Be In The Future. To Tell You Truth, I Identify With What No Longer Exists More Than What Actually Is. We Have Lied About What We Actually Are, And That, Unfortunately, Will Be Your Book. So Would You Still Like Me To Talk About Myself?
