Hope is like a path in the countryside.
Lu Xun
Hope is like a path in the countryside. Originally, there is nothing - but as people walk this way again and again, a path appears.
Lu Xun
True, we must dare look things in the face before we dare think, speak, act, or assume responsibility. If we dare not even look, what else are we good for?

Lu Xun
The world is changing from day to day it is high time for our writers to take off their masks, look frankly, keenly, and boldly at life, and write about real flesh and blood. It is high time for a brand-new arena for literature, high time for some bold fighters to charge headlong into battle!

Lu Xun
Let those who hanker after the past return to the past! Let those who want to leave the world leave the world! Let those who want to ascend to heaven do so! Let those whose souls want to leave their bodies expire quickly! The earth today should be inhabited by man with a firm hold on the present, a firm hold on the earth.
Lu Xun
To be suspicious is not a fault. To be suspicious all the time without coming to a conclusion is the defect.
Lu Xun
Women have a mother-nature and a daughter-nature there are no women with a wife-nature. The quality of wife is an acquired character it is a combination of mother and daughter.
Lu Xun
The most horrible thing is not a government that stages public executions, but a government that secretly disposes of its victims.
Lu Xun
Discontent is the wheel that moves people forward.
Lu Xun
But if a few awake, you can't say there is no hope of destroying the iron house.
Lu Xun
Lies written in ink cannot disguise facts written in blood.
Lu Xun
I felt that if a man's proposals met with approval, it should encourage him if they met with opposition, it should make him fight back but the real tragedy for him was to lift up his voice among the living and meet with no response neither approval nor opposition just as if he were left helpless in a boundless desert.
