EXTRACT: Ah! I see what's happened. We've got a "misdirected aim" here. You thought you were working for the good of the people, for the revolution, for the future of the world, for the rights of the oppressed, for the alleviation of starvation and misery, for the position of women, for political freedom, for the preservation of our earth, but actually, I 'm sorry, in fact your activities did more harm than good. There were all sorts of factors you didn't consider in the long term: You get nothing."
