Text Quotes
So-called Chinese art and culture is under control of the Party. They exist to serve the official agenda. I call it fake art and culture.  (Chinese Quotes) Chinese artists have been subversive over thousands of years, taking what they think of the government and embedding it in their art. There might be censorship of not going as far as they might.  (Chinese Quotes) We recognize the distinctness of Asian art when we turn to its traditional forms, recognize it as Japanese, Chinese and Indian, even Balinese or Thai.  (Chinese Quotes) I taught a lot of art history, especially Chinese, Japanese, and Indian. But the painting classes came back. The nudes came back. Not so much the still lifes. So now our department is the worst department, partly because it has the worst facilities.  (Chinese Quotes) The Chinese art world does not exist. In a society that restricts individual freedoms and violates human rights, anything that calls itself creative or independent is a pretence. It is impossible for a totalitarian society to create anything with passion and imagination.  (Chinese Quotes) Some prescient American collectors, including Vicki and Kent Logan and Mera and Donald Rubell, began collecting Chinese art before 2000 with a genuine passion, but as the auction prices exploded everyone was beating a path to the galleries and artist studios in China. It became the ‘China thing.’  (Chinese Quotes) Now the British are coming. I think Cameron should ask the Chinese government not to make people ‘disappear’ or to jail them merely because they have different opinions.  (Chinese Quotes) The first thing the Chinese ask you when they meet you is: ‘How much money do you make?’ It’s a legitimate question to ask in China.  (Chinese Quotes) Ask yourself: if I were a Chinese spy, why wouldn’t I have flown directly into Beijing? I could be living in a palace petting a phoenix by now.  (Chinese Quotes) We know the Chinese have revealed millions of background information on millions of people in the United States, and these, I suppose, ultimately are part of international big-power politics.  (Chinese Quotes) Chinese people, young people, they don’t go shopping a lot in department stores. All department store guys hate me. They say business is bad because of Jack.  (Chinese Quotes) Ai Weiwei, who is both a widely admired conceptual artist and a fearless human-rights activist, has been on the bad side of the Chinese government for years.  (Chinese Quotes) The most difficult battles in life are those we fight within. - Old Chinese Proverb  (Chinese Quotes) To call yourself a Chinese artist or woman artist or African artist reflects a certain kind of condition. To me, that is not necessary.  (Chinese Quotes) The beginning of wisdom, as the Chinese say, is calling things by their right names  (Chinese Quotes) For the Chinese, the Greeks, the Mayans, or the Egyptians, nature was a living totality, a creative being. For this reason, art, according to Aristotle, is imitation; the poet imitates the creative gesture of nature.  (Chinese Quotes) Haier, a Chinese brand, exemplifies the trend of emerging market companies building brands that are being accepted, if not recognized, by the Western consumer.  (Chinese Quotes) The Chinese had accused the Tibetans of being terrorists, which is weird. A Tibetan terrorist is like an Amish hacker. It just doesn’t fit.  (Chinese Quotes) I’m slowly feeling more Chinese and feel I should be more proud of being Chinese and appreciate where I’ve come from.  (Chinese Quotes) In South Africa, being Chinese meant I wasn’t white and I wasn’t black. I trained in Baragwanath Hospital, the largest black hospital in South Africa. That was around 1976, the time of the Soweto Uprising, when police fired on children and students who were protesting. I was part of the group of interns who volunteered to treat them.  (Chinese Quotes) The way I see it is that all the ol’ guff about being Irish is a kind of nonsense. I mean, I couldn’t be anything else no matter what I tried to be. I couldn’t be Chinese or Japanese.  (Chinese Quotes) Early on I saw the plastic quality in colored people and had friends among them; and later was to work from colored models and friends, including Paul Robeson, whose splendid head I worked from in New York. I tried to draw Chinamen in their quarter, but the Chinese did not like being drawn and would immediately disappear when they spotted me.  (Chinese Quotes) I guess my personality is that of a modern, strong Chinese woman. I don’t believe in destiny. There are many things that can be changed. I don’t like to be defeated by difficulties. I love freedom, so when I am shaping a character, I usually do it the way I want. I always find some part of my own character in a role.  (Chinese Quotes) I lived in China for 9 years straight. I saw how my Chinese friends benefited and gained much more freedom to determine the course of their lives, their jobs, their creative works, and their identities over the course of a decade. Much of this increased freedom is thanks to economic engagement by the West.  (Chinese Quotes) Best Buy is just too Western! They do not stock enough Chinese brands, and Chinese people do not want to buy foreign brands.  (Chinese Quotes) Chinese food in Texas is the best Chinese food in the United States except Boston  (Chinese Quotes) I personally think that Hollywood agencies ought to play a much better role in the development of Chinese films. Otherwise they’re missing out on a lot of opportunities.  (Chinese Quotes) Selective Biblical quotation is a favorite of leftists who interpret the Bible the same way they do the Constitution: as a Chinese menu designed to allow picking and choosing. That’s because when many Democrats take the Bible as a whole, they realize how much they despise it.  (Chinese Quotes) John McCain turned 72 years old last Friday, but the Chinese are making him a birth certificate that says he’s only 33 and then he’ll be ready to go.  (Chinese Quotes) Social services, not wealth per se, seem to be the key to lower birth rates. The Chinese, although among the poorest peoples of the world, have brought their fertility rate down to 2.4, partly by social coercion, but mostly by broadly available education, health care and family planning.  (Chinese Quotes)
