Jimmy Kruger (JT Kruger), South African Minister of Justice and Police, (Narrator incorrectly identifies him as Paul Kruger) speaking about the curtailing of civil/ human rights. it is the responsibility of the governing party and the people that govern. They know everything that is going on. They have been placed there by the people. And they have to see that the safety of the people, which is to them a holy matter placed in their hands, must not be in jeopardy. And therefore it is their full responsibility to decide at what stage the ordinary right of the individual, should, and can, and must be curtailed.

South African President, Balthazar Johannes Vorster (BJ Vorster) speaking vehemently about the necessity of apartheid. this government, this nationalist party has been governing South Africa for 26 years under very difficult circumstances in the face of a hostile world. And I say to you, apart from anything else, the merit of the National Party lies in the fact that it has been able to hold South Africa for 26 years in the face of all these difficulties.
