Please do not assume that you can change governments. Young people don’t understand this.

I make no apologies that the PAP is the Government and the Government is the PAP.

[T]he tested norm is the family unit. It is the building brick of society. Governments will come, governments will go, but this endures.

The Americans should know the character of the men they are dealing with in Singapore and not get themselves further dragged into calumny ... They are not dealing with Ngo Dinh Diem or Syngman Rhee. You do not buy and sell this Government.
