“[Hong Kong] was indeed (in the words of the Chinese journalist Tsang Ki-fan) the only Chinese society that, for a brief span of 100 years, lived through an ideal never realized at any time in the history of Chinese society — a time when no man had to live in fear of the midnight knock on the door.”
Chris Patten, East and West
