“Besides, as they say, if the floodwaters are rushing straight toward you, what are you going to do to stop them? This was how she treated me, for no apparent reason.”
Qiu Miaojin, Notes of a Crocodile

Qiu Miaojin
“That guardedness was a by-product of my lifelong socialization, of other people labeling me and putting me in a box.”
Qiu Miaojin, Notes of a Crocodile

“She was a vine extending one slender, delicate branch toward my window, hoping I was the sky, not knowing that on the other side, there was no shade, and not much sunshine, either.”
Qiu Miaojin, Notes of a Crocodile

Qiu Miaojin
“She had tied me up with wire and left me to die. But when all was said and done, she wanted me to die in her arms. So before entering my dreams every night, she yanked the wire tight to make sure I was still there.”
Qiu Miaojin, Notes of a Crocodile

Qiu Miaojin
“Sometimes writing was like finding a parking spot: Just as I was about to give up, I managed to achieve a perfect fit, thanks to a bit of skillful maneuvering. Other times it was like examining food that had been left sitting out for so long that ants and cockroaches had gotten to it. On other occasions it was like a major year-end cleaning where I was forced to throw something away because I couldn’t find anywhere to put it. And still other times, it was like trading in a used car for a new one: I didn’t give it a second thought.”
Qiu Miaojin, Notes of a Crocodile
