"North Korea is not the paradise your grandfather envisioned. It is a hell that no person deserves."

That's actually not a bad quote, I'm sure he didn't come up with it on his own. I think "envisioned" has 4 syllables?

Yeah, good line.

With "envisioned", you do have to wonder whether the writer would have worried that he'd flub it. I'd have gone with "promised" or something like that.
