“I need to be able to rock out.”

I’ve always wanted to push myself and move with the tide. That’s just how I am and it’s worked for me.

People have to go through what they have to go through. I think in some cases you sort of bring things on yourself and that’s what you want it to be than that’s the way it is.

I need to talk about Chinese culture. We have deep, strong philosophy and culture. I want to share some information, tell the worldwide audience.

We need to let our children grow up to face the world armed with knowledge, with much more knowledge than we ourselves had at their age. It is scary, but the alternative is worse.
