Quote #14: June 4, 1989
"On the day after June 4, 1989, I went to school as usual. It was junior high. All classes were canceled for the day. Teachers gathered all the students in the hall, they sat on the floor and listened. Teachers were crying while showing the students news and explained what had happened. I forever thank my responsible teachers for making sure that the tragedy wouldn’t be forgotten." — Dennis Yuen, New York artist & Hong Kong native
