I blog because I have something to say.

I'll always be Chinese first. It probably isn't politically correct to say or something that the majority understands; I can change my shoes, I can swap my passport, but, I'll always have this face.

I have more to say as a writer than from behind a wok.

I get so disenfranchised reading the news, because global borders and lines we've created are completely unnecessary. That's just another person on the other side, and it's his bad luck that he was born there and it's my good fortune that I was born here. It's all kind of illogical.

People talk about perfect timing, but I think everything is perfect in its moment; you just want to capture that.

New York felt to me like what America should be - a representation of the world in this small pocket.
