And he may suffer reduction in his enjoyment of his life, through pain and suffering and inability to participate in his usual activities, whether of a temporary or permanent nature. It is clear that the latter loss is incompensable in monetary terms."
- "Finally and most significantly, the plaintiffs are using the few vague and incomplete legal categories presently available in domestic law to pinpoint the role of multinational corporations and the complicit governments that allow their activities to inflict incompensable harms that can only be described as crimes against humanity."
