Danh ngôn của Jenny Zhang
Mothers have always held such symbolic weight in determining a person's worth. Your mother tongue, your motherland, your mother's values - these things can qualify or disqualify you from attaining myriad American dreams: love, fluency, citizenship, legitimacy, acceptance, success, freedom.

Những người mẹ luôn có sức nặng mang tính biểu tượng như vậy trong việc xác định giá trị của một người. Tiếng mẹ đẻ của bạn, quê hương của bạn, các giá trị của mẹ bạn - những điều này có thể đủ điều kiện hoặc không đủ điều kiện để bạn đạt được vô số giấc mơ Mỹ: tình yêu, sự trôi chảy, quyền công dân, tính hợp pháp, sự chấp nhận, thành công, tự do.

Các câu danh ngôn khác của cùng tác giả: Jenny Zhang
- Asian American success is often presented as something of a horror - robotic, unfeeling machines psychotically hellbent on excelling, products of abusive tiger parenting who care only about test scores and perfection, driven to succeed without even knowing why.
- My mother had two unshakable beliefs that she tried to drill into me. The first was that I had to study and work twice as hard as my white peers if I wanted to survive in America, and the second was that it was delusional and dangerous to believe I possessed the same freedom white people had to pursue my dreams.
- I went to school in California, at Stanford when I was seventeen, and I lived in San Francisco until I was twenty-three, and then I lived in Hungary for, like, a summer, and then I went to Iowa for three years. At Iowa, I actually did the fiction program, not poetry. I was a fiction writer for a long time before I was 'out' as a poet.
- I just submitted what I had to the 'Octopus Books' contest open reading period, and they said they wanted to publish my poetry book. Then I started to publish more and more poetry because people would ask me to do readings or ask me submit something for their journal.

- To me, the flag represents the greatest ideals of the United States of America, not the worst, but different people look at different things and have different feelings about it. That's what freedom of expression is all about.
- You measure a democracy by the freedom it gives its dissidents, not the freedom it gives its assimilated conformists.
- He who would be no slave must consent to have no slave. Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves and, under a just God, cannot long retain it.
- Creative freedom is a huge carrot.
- A hungry man is not a free man.
