“All sins and evils will have their due conclusions. This is the historical trend of the progress of human freedom and will not be changed because dark clouds temporarily obscure the light. True light is never without times of darkness but will never be concealed by darkness.”
—Ye Du (pen name of the mainland Chinese writer Wu Wei (吳偉 ))
(From his letter dated July 13, 2021 proposing marriage to his girlfriend Tonyee Chow Hang-tung, vice chairperson of the Hong kong Alliance, currently in custody awaiting trial on allegedly publicizing unlawful assembly in connection with the banned June 4 candlelight vigil in Hong Kong.

“所有的罪与恶都一定会有应有的结局，这人类自由进步的历史大势，不会因为乌云暂时遮挡了光明而改变，真正的光明决不是没有黑暗的时间，但永不会被黑暗所掩蔽。”
