“Why is it that because ye use hard drugs every cunt feels that they have a right tae dissect and analyse ye? Once ye accept that they huv that right, ye’ll join them in the search fir this holy grail, this thing that makes ye tick. Ye’ll then defer tae them, allowin yersel tae be conned intae believin any biscuit-ersed theory ay behaviour they choose tae attach tae ye. Then yir theirs, no yir ain; the dependency shifts from the drug to them. Society invents a spurious convoluted logic tae absorb and change people whae’s behaviour is outside its mainstream. Suppose that ah ken aw the pros and cons, know that ah’m gaunnae huv a short life, am ay sound mind etcetera, etcetera, but still want tae use smack? They won’t let ye dae it. They won’t let ye dae it, because it’s seen as a sign ay thir ain failure. The fact that ye jist simply choose tae reject whit they huv tae offer. Choose us. Choose life. Choose mortgage payments; choose washing machines; choose cars; choose sitting oan a couch watching mind-numbing and spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fuckin junk food intae yir mooth. Choose rotting away, pishing and shiteing yersel in a home, a total fuckin embarrassment tae the selfish, fucked-up brats ye’ve produced. Choose life. Well, ah choose no tae choose life. If the cunts cannae handle that, it’s thair fuckin problem. As Harry Lauder sais, ah jist intend tae keep right on to the end of the road …”

“Severokorejští studenti a intelektuálové si netroufli organizovat protesty, jak to dělaly jejich protějšky v jiných komunistických zemích. Nepřišlo ani pražské jaro, ani náměstí Nebeského klidu. Severokorejská represe byla tak silná, že organizovaný odpor nemohl v zemi uspět. Jakákoli protirežimní činnost měla strašlivé následky jak pro vzbouřence, tak pro jeho nejbližší rodinu i všechny známé příbuzné. V systému, který usiloval o vykořenění poskvrněné krve do třetího pokolení, se trest vztahoval také na rodiče, prarodiče, sourozence, neteře, synovce, sestřenice a bratrance. „Mnoho lidí to bralo tak, že kdyby měli kvůli svržení toho hrozného režimu ztratit svůj život, rádi by ho obětovali. Ale problém byl v tom, že trest by se neomezil jen na jeden život – celá rodina by si prošla peklem,”
