The obvious precedent for Beijing 2008 was the Berlin Olympics, in 1936. Both were showcases for a muscle-flexing nation, although Hitler made an elementary error when he chose not to dress his young National Socialists in lime-green catsuits laced with twinkling fairy lights.

Beijing Coma took me 10 years to finish.
Beijing Quotes : pic 000296200

Beijing Quotes : pic 000663362

Beijing Quotes : pic 000680524
When you're walking around in Shanghai, I called it the City of Near Misses, because they do not stop for pedestrians. And the pedestrians do not have the right of way. It's those little things that no one tells you.
Beijing Quotes : pic 000549600
In the 1970s and early '80s, Shanghai was quiet, cautious, a ghost of a once-great city - and yet physically, little was changed from its glittering heyday. When visiting, I enjoyed reading books on local history and used my time off to scope out the former haunts of gangsters and jazzmen.
Beijing Quotes : pic 000408574
China tennis - we're getting bigger and bigger.
Beijing Quotes : pic 000621074

Beijing Quotes : pic 000663354

Beijing Quotes : pic 000398046

Beijing Quotes : pic 001364310

Beijing Quotes : pic 000464690

Beijing Quotes : pic 000682346
There are a billion people in China. It's not easy to be an individual in a crowd of more than a billion people. Think of it. More than a billion people. That means even if you're a one-in-a-million type of guy, there are still a thousand guys exactly like you.

Whales follow
the whale-roads.

roads of magnetized air.

arrives in China,
Steering hard.
consulting the charts
the whole journey.

Beijing Quotes : pic 000344331
