"I am not leaving Hong Kong, I will stay and fight until the last day, whether or not I am a prime target of Beijing's use of national security laws to suppress, it does not matter. Everyone in Hong Kong, especially those working in the media, is worried because anything we say or publish publicly could be used by the government as evidence of subversion or incitement to disorder."

“When I escaped from China and came to Hong Kong, the contrast was that China was like hell and Hong Kong, like heaven. Though I was very poor, I smelled the air of freedom and was full of hope for the future. That’s the way I thought heaven is.”

“I don't want to leave Hong Kong, the only thing we can do is persist, not to lose spirit or hope. And to think that what is right will eventually prevail.”

“If I really treated business like a businessman, I wouldn’t have done what I have done — opposing China. No businessman in their right mind would do this, because you know that there will be repercussions.”

“The intention of the Chinese government taking away our freedom is so obvious that we know, if we don't fight, we will lose everything...When you lose the freedom, you lose everything. What do you have?”

“I don't regret my support for the protest movement. I came here empty-handed, and I owe everything I've got to the freedom of Hong Kong. Maybe it's time for me to give it back... I think there's more to life than money.”
