Jung Chang Quotes

Before Our "company" Set Off, At A Wink From The Officer, Plumpie Stood Up And Proposed A Search. I Could See That Some Of The Others Thought She Was Wasting Our Time, But Our Company Commander Cheerfully Seconded Her Proposal. He Suggested We Search Him First. A Boy Was Called To Do This, And Found A Big Bunch Of Keys On Him. Our Commander Acted As Though He Had Been Genuinely Careless, And Gave Plumpie A Victorious Smile. The Rest Of Us Searched Each Other. This Roundabout Way Of Doing Things Reflected A Maoist Practice: Things Had To Look As Though They Were The Wish Of The People, Rather Than Commands From Above. Hypocrisy And Playacting Were Taken For Granted.
