The Harsh Lessons of Gangster Life
Mark Gor:
You think learning will help you? Don't think reading gangster books will make you the boss. Have you ever had a gun pointed at your head? You haven't. Twelve years ago... It's been twelve years, right? For the first time, I went with Ho to bring goods to Indonesia. The boss there treated us to dinner in the night club. I said something wrong to displease the boss. Next thing I knew, there were two guns pointed at my head. I was forced to drink a bottle of whiskey. I was so scared, I pissed my pants! Fortunately, Ho was there and drank the whole bottle of whiskey for me. But guess what, it got even worse after that. Now there's four guns were pointed at my head! You know they made me drink? Piss. Drinking piss in a night club! You want learning? That's learning!...And that's how we got through our first job.
Ho Tse Sung:
That's all in the past. Forget about it.
Mark Gor:
No! I...I have never cried before; that was the first time I cried. I swore right then that I'd never let anyone point a gun at my head again!

Desire for Change and Self-Respect
Mark Lee:
That's enough!!! I don't need your pity!!...You don't owe me anything! I would never force my own friends to do something they wouldn't do! I have my own principles! I just don't want to live like this anymore!!...Do you think I like to beg!?...I've been in bad shape for three years, waiting for this opportunity! This is my only chance, not to prove that I'm the best, but to simply take back what I have lost!!!...Look at yourself. Look at what you've become!!...Back then, people rejected you! Now, you can't even take two steps without someone following you!!! Have you ever fought for a chance? You never have. Never!!!...I don't want to be like you...
