"Hold tenderly that which you cherish, for it is precious and a tight grip may crush it. Do not let the fear of dropping it cause you to hold it too tightly; the chances are, it's holding you too."

We three, we're all alone, living in a memory

My echo, my shadow and me.

We three, we're not a crowd, we're not even company

My echo, my shadow, and me.

What good is the moonlight, the silvery moonlight

That shines above.

I walk with my shadow, I talk with my echo,

But where is the one I love?

We three, we'll wait for you, even till eternity -

My echo, my shadow and me.

Exhaust the little moment. Soon it dies. And be it gash or gold it will not come Again in this identical guise.

Sun nien fai lok!

Look what daddy got me in Shang-Hai.

"It is wrong to think that love comes from long companionship and persevering courtship. Love is the offspring of spiritual affinity and unless that affinity is created in a moment, it will not be created for years or even generations."
