“Americans always see China through the looking glass, and I think it's...” — Wong Kar-wai Quote

Americans always see China through the looking glass, and I think it's about time - with technology and of the growing economic relationship between these two countries - I think it's natural and better for all of us to have a better understanding of each other.

The Glass Key is better than anything Hemingway ever wrote.

I've broken through many walls and glass ceilings.

If slaughterhouses had glass walls the whole world would be vegetarian.
