"Engels once called the British army the most brutal army. During the Second World War, the German fascist army surpassed the barbarism of the British army.

“If a man who professes to be a communist punishes an innocent person by labelling him a reactionary, he's no longer a communist, but the worst of criminals.”

“War is not only a contest of strength, but also a test of morality and ethics.”

“The time has come when we Korean people have to unite our strength to build a new, democratic Korea. People from all strata should display patriotic enthusiasm and turn out to build a new Korea.

“When confederation is realized, and the ideologies of North and South are propagandized in the course of free intercourse between the two sides, the Republic will not be affected in the slightest, because it is a unified state. But the South is an ideologically divided, liberal country, so if we extensively propagate Juche Thought and the superiority of our system we can win over at least half its citizens. As of now South Korea is twice our size in population terms. But once we win over half the South's people in a confederation, we will be two parts to the South's one. We would then win either a general election or a war.”

“The revolution itself originates from a dream of the future or from the craving for a new life.”
