There is little passion in their voices, even when the queen and Sebastian over come their initial distrust and become lovers to the death.

It is useless to talk to anybody other than Kim II Sung, so he and I must meet and begin a dialogue. Let us talk first of the relatively easy problems, so as to build up gradually an atmosphere of mutual trust and confidence.
