...thoughtful members of this academic community, and most particularly our colleagues who have labored long to understand and present the Korean case, will want actively to reject. South Korea is a nation that has suffered too long and come too far to have its government and its international friends betray its real interests in the very name of defending them...
...Holmes might have worked, but the screenplay stops far short of Conan Doyle's stories, and Bob Clark's heavy-handed direction relies too much on weird music, heavy breathing, and heartbeats to create an atmosphere of horror and anticipation. A lot of vintage detail, but very little substance betray Clark's B-movie origins. It's not all that bad but it's not Sherlock Holmes. As the master sleuth himself would have said.

...sent bishops a "preparatory document" for the current meeting. It contained only tepid criticism of militarism and of violence aimed at priests. The poor were offered "the happiness of the [spiritual] kingdom of which no human sorrow can deprive them." Outraged liberals charged that a campaign was afoot to "betray" Medellin.

In fact, money talked. In a lopsided swap, Avon offered $45 worth of its stock for each share of Tiffany, which had been hovering...
...them in her book; all except the evil Rifes (a family of villainous munitions manufacturers) are unbelievably sensitive and peaceable types. Whenever anything goes wrong, Cora, like Grandpa Walton, gives us a salt-of-the-earth piece of wisdom and puts everything to rights. The men don't betray the women. The women don't betray each other. If someone is crazy, he's harmless and cute and everyone is tolerant...
