Human Rights

I have no enemies or hatred.

Hatred can corrupt the intelligence and the awareness of a person…

I wish to transcend the hostility of the regime [towards my thinking] with the best disposition to dissipate hatred with love…The most fortunate experience of all these last twenty years has been the unconditional love I have received from my wife Liu Xia […] I wish to say to you that I firmly believe that your love will continue as ever […] I am carrying on my sentence in a tangible prison, while you await in the intangible prison of the heart. There is nothing criminal in what I have done. […But] if new charges are presented against me, I have no regrets. Thank you all.

My faith is a wounded faith […] I didn’t divorce God […] During imprisonment I used to pray every day […] My faith crisis came after the Camp.

[…] While in prison in the Pinochet military regime I counted the checker squares on the floor tiles  [in the women’s torture center], to avoid going insane or to dive into negative states of mind
