In his reminiscences With the Century Volume 8, President Kim Il Sung wrote that it may be said that the cheers of the people resounding in the Pyongyang public playground on October 14, 1945 were the acknowledgement of and reward for the arduous struggle we had waged for the first half of our lifetimes for our country and fellow countrymen, adding that no pleasure can be greater than that of enjoying the love and support of the people.

I have regarded the love and support of the people as the absolute standard that measures the value of existence of a revolutionary and the happiness he can enjoy, and apart from the love and support of the people, a revolutionary has nothing, the President noted.

The President continued to write that bourgeois politicians try to lure the people with money, but we obtained trust from the people at the cost of our blood and sweat, adding that I was moved by the people’s trust in me and I considered it the greatest pleasure I could enjoy in my life.
