Quote by Neil Munro

“What does his lordship dae? He buys up a bunch o' islands in the Hebrides; carts in the native crofter population to Stornoway; runs them through a sapple o' Sunlight Soap, cuts their nails; learns them the English language; gets them an eight-'oors day, and starts them fishin' on scientific principles. Stornoway becomes the Port Sunlight of the North; every man has a nice wee red-tiled cottage, and a picture palace at the door, and the cod fish is fair worried oot o' its life.”

The events of that night set in motion a series of events I couldn't possibly have imagined. The seeds for the Laws of Power were planted that night....

The laws that grew out of them are as pertinent today as they were then.”
