But we are, after all, human beings" -- Trang: "I was prepared for any sacrifice or risk" -- Minh: "I led two lives" -- Le An: "The theme of our work in putting on plays was revolution" -- Sen: "We thought of ourselves as working for the people, not a particular party" -- Tuyen: "Everyone thought, if a certain event happens, all ills would be cured. Everyone was wrong." -- Lien An: "Through the education we got in the north, we understood what we had to do" -- Xuan: "There was so much hatred. We could not stay indifferent; something had to be done" -- Oanh: "'French are very nice in France, and very colonialist in the colonies.' Americans were exactly the same" -- Reuniting.
