Quote by Simu Liu

“better life. As the beneficiaries of their courage, we in the next generation are responsible for keeping their stories alive so that our great-great-grandchildren will know their roots and, in the face of adversity, will remember that they are descended from wide-eyed dreamers who never gave up on their goal.”

“Truth is a preexistent reality that transcends our authorship, is untouched by the dictates of our interpretations, is invincible in the face of the most ingeniously crafted lies, and exceeds the duration of our existence. And if we dared to hold all of our cherished beliefs against such a penetrating standard, how often would we find ourselves left with nothing but the standard?”

“If the voices and perspectives we assess ourselves by are stuck in systems of their own they can be another trap. If they're stuck in their own agendas-- their needs and desires-- then they're another "wicked temptation" to sell out our deepest truths to please or pacify someone else. Which is why I advocate multiple mirrors, offering different ways of seeing, of feeling, of processing, angles and views we might otherwise miss, and reminding us to revere just how complex reality is.”
