Features: What is presented before us is a feast of thought. Rooted in empiricism and liberalism, Wang Xiaobo, from the perspective of the common people, uses the writing style of the common people, with a sharp critical consciousness, to show us a pure spiritual homeland, bringing a lightning bolt to this world and illuminating the hearts of many. As we wander through his spiritual home, we feel his sincerity towards thought, towards himself, and towards writing. Amidst it, we clearly hear the laughter he emits from heaven and his witty whispers filled with ingenuity.
My demands upon myself are very low: I live in the world merely wanting to understand some truths and encounter some interesting things. If I can achieve this as I wish, my life will be considered successful. For this, I must argue about right and wrong, otherwise, the truths will not be revealed to me, and the interesting things will not be encountered by me. I started too late, and it is very likely that I will achieve nothing. But I must state my attitude. In fact, as long as a person fights for the right to argue about right and wrong, he has already won without fighting. — Wang Xiaobo
In my eyes, Xiaobo is a romantic knight, a minstrel poet, and a free thinker. Some people say that in our society, only theorists, interpreters of authoritative theories, and ideological experts emerge, not thinkers, but in my opinion, Xiaobo is an exception; he is a free thinker. The stance of liberal humanism runs through his entire personality and thought. — Li Yinhe
