"The novel is a mirror that reflects not just reality, but the hidden fractures within it."

我不会为了你舍弃世界。但是，我也不会为了世界舍弃你。

"The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there."

"The colony is the place where the project of a new humanity is to be tested, where the dream of a world without borders is to be realized, where the dream of a world without races is to be realized, where the dream of a world without nations is to be realized, where the dream of a world without classes is to be realized, where the dream of a world without genders is to be realized."
