 Personality Cult in North Korea
Kim Jong-il was actually born in Vyatsk in the vicinity of Khabarovsk, the Far Eastern region of the ex-Soviet Union, but his birth has been falsified as if he was born in a "milyong" (secret camp) on Mt. Paekdu, Yanggang Province.
The idolization of Kim Jong-il's family lineage was initiated for the purposes of justifying the process of Kim Il-sung's seizing power, which was actually done illegitimately, and the power succession from father to son.
Besides, he ordered the carving of over 12,000 pieces of catchword trees and catchword documents, as well as the carving of letters appearing on natural rocks, and the erection of monumental stones with his own personal writings, let alone the publication of countless books related to his personality cult.

 Estienne De La Boetie: Discourse on Voluntary Servitude (1548)
La Boétie's efforts might have borne fruit, but at one of his trips to Agen while some form of dysentery was raging in that region, he caught the germ, as his great friend Montaigne believes.
La Boétie was very far from imagining when he composed his classical discourse that it would transform its author ten years after his death into a champion of Huguenot resistance.
La Boétie paints in lurid and clownish colors the complexion of tyranny, explains its unstable and contemptible basis, and then shows serenely the way to its overthrow by patience, passive resistance, and faith in God.
