|---|---|
| 1 | Imperialist aid is a noose of plunder and subjugation, aimed at robbing 10 and even 100 things for one thing that is given. |
| 2 | A film with an untidy plot cannot grip the audience and define their emotional response. |
| 3 | The cinema occupies an important place in the overall development of art and literature. |
| 4 | Overall relations between the North and the South have developed in favor of national reconciliation, unity and reunification. |
| 5 | Great ideology creates great times. |
| 6 | No faction is better or worse than any other. All come from the same mould; they are all products of capitalist influence in the working class movement. And they are a poison that destroys our Party and the working class movement in Korea. |
| 7 | No production of high ideological and artistic value can evolve out of a creative group whose members are not united ideologically and in which discipline and order have not been established. |
| 8 | A man who dreads trials and difficulties cannot become a revolutionary. If he is to become a revolutionary with an indomitable fighting spirit, he must be tempered in the arduous struggle from his youth. As the saying goes, early training means more than late earning. |
| 9 | National defense is the sacred duty of the young and all other people. |
| 10 | The revolution is carried out by means of one's thought, not through one's family background. |
| 11 | The liquidation of colonialism is a trend of the times which no force can hold back. |
| 12 | We oppose the reactionary policies of the U.S. government but we do not oppose the American people. We want to have many good friends in the United States. |
