Senator John Kerry
We call Japanese soldiers fanatics when they die rather than surrender, whereas American soldiers who do the same thing are called heroes
Robert Maynard Hutchins

Niccolo Machiavelli
The main foundations of every state, new states as well as ancient or composite ones, are good laws and good arms - you cannot have good laws without good arms, and where there are good arms, good laws inevitably follow
Niccolo Machiavelli
Christianity, with its doctrine of humility, of forgiveness, of love, is incompatible with the state, with its haughtiness, its violence, its punishment, its wars
Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy
An election cannot give a country a firm sense of direction if it has two or more national parties which merely have different names but are as alike in their principles and aims as two peas in the same pod
Franklin D. Roosevelt

Peter Blake
Canada will be a strong country when Canadians of all provinces feel at home in all parts of the country, and when they feel that all Canada belongs to them.
