- ""Alas! I called him 'foreign devil' then. Chang, too, had much to learn." "He is speaking of Lord Macartney.""
- "Some liberals interested in reforming the law put out a questionnaire to poll public opinion on homosexuality. They got about two thousand people to answer the questionnaire but there were in the end only about five hundred responses. As usual most of these respondants were English, Europeans or Americans which gave a very skewed idea to the Chinese community who again viewed that only the "foreign devils" were interested in homosexuality and law reform."
