Christian: If you hit them hard enough the first time they won't dare to hit you again.
I only used a cell phone for the first time after I was released. I had difficulty coping with it because it seemed so small and insubstantial.

I always was fascinated with China, because I was born in Europe, and for us, China had this fascination and mystery. The first time I came here was in 1989. They were on bicycles, and the speed of the growth has been incredible.
