- Favorite Quotations:
- “Liberal philosophy places the highest value on freedom of the individual. The first consequence of freedom is change. A Liberal can seldom be a partisan of the status quo. He tends to be a reformer – attempting to move society, to modify its institutions, to liberate its citizens. The liberal is an optimist at heart who trusts people. He does not see man as an essentially perverse creature, incapable of moral progress and happiness. Nor does he see him as totally or automatically good. He prizes man’s inclination to good but knows it must be cultivated and supported. While understanding as well as any other man the limits of government and the law, the liberal knows that both are powerful forces for good, and does not hesitate to use them.”
-The Right Honourable Pierre Elliott Trudeau, April 1974
"I am a Liberal. I am one of these who think that everywhere, in human beings, there are abuses to be reformed, new horizons to be opened up, and new forces to be developed."
- The Right Honourable Wilfrid Laurier Work Info
