" "Language was a bottleneck — he knew he didn’t have enough time. He fantasized that the knowledge he had spent his life accumulating — not much, but dear to him — was lodged in his brain like small pearls, and that as he spoke, a crystal ax chopped the pearls out of his brain onto the floor, where the children scrambled to gather them like sweets at New Year’s.

Additional quotes by Liu Cixin

He advocated abolishing crude technologies such as fossil fuels and nuclear energy and keeping gentler technologies such as solar power and small-scale hydroelectric power.
