"That day I was twenty-one years old,
In the golden age of my life,
I have many extravagant hopes.
I want to love, I want to eat, and I want to become a half-dark cloud in the sky in an instant,
Later I found out,
Life is a slow process of being hammered,
As people get older day by day, their extravagant hopes disappear day by day.
Eventually it became like a beaten cow.
But I didn't foresee this when I celebrated my twenty-first birthday.
I feel like I will always be strong and nothing can beat me. " ---Wang Xiaobo
