“I believe in the old, because it shows us where we come from – where our souls have risen from. And I believe in the new, because it gives us the opportunity to create who we are becoming.”

Is it an original idea? Or is it something where you’re literally a creative collagist? You’re taking pieces of the world that you see around you and that are inside of you and put them together in a way that you see fit.

I’ve noticed that the more I open up, the more I learn.

Outside your door, the world is waiting. Inside your heart, a voice is calling. The four corners of the world are watching. So travel, daughter, travel. Go get it, girl.

I really believe in the power of music.

I’m, I guess you could say, the Chinese-speaking, banjo-picking girl.

U.S.-China relations doesn’t need another lawyer.

Hogslop is the real deal groovilicious honkin old-time string band. Guaranteed old-time awesomeness with these fellas around!

I would still describe China as a vast, invigorating puzzle that will never make sense to my western upbringing.

I tried to play flute because all the pretty girls played flute.

For most Americans, my Chinese music feels like a novelty and it’s not what it is for me.

I reside in a new colony for the Chinese-singing banjo player, with a population of one. At least I have something I have to do with my life.

We had taken into the battle, but now trusting in the limitless resources of our risen Lord.
