    • 1976, Urho Kekkonen, Kirjeitä myllystäni: 1968-1975, Letter to kansleri Veli Merikoski, dated May 8, 1975:
      Mutta jos te saatanan tunarit ette olisi tätä verratonta julistustanne saattaneet ilmoille, olisin ehkä ehtinyt sisäasiainministerin ehdotuksesta nimittää Erkki Huurtamon Kymen läänin maaherraksi.
      But had you damn morons not issued this exceptional declaration of yours, I may have had time to, at the suggestion of the Minister of the Interior, appoint Erkki Huurtamo as the maaherra of Kymi Province.
