I decided that I didn't want to follow any of these ideologies or trends, because that's also a kind of pressure that doesn't allow absolute freedom. So I decided that I was only going to produce works that were satisfactory to me, and that meant not following any trends and being anti-ideological.” WantKindArtHardLiteratureHonestProduceDecidedAbsolutesPressureFollowingI RealizedIdeologyTrendsIdeologicalAbsolute Freedom Author:Gao Xingjian
“Religion is based upon blind faith supported by no evidence. Science is based upon confidence that results from evidence - and that confidence can be modified and/or reversed by further observations and experimentation.
