I, for one, will be convinced that the Canada we know and love will be gone forever. But, then, Thucydides wrote that Themistocles' greatness lay in the fact that he realized Athens was not immortal.

Pierre Trudeau
I believe that Canada cannot, indeed, that Canada must not survive by force. The country will only remain united - it should only remain united - if its citizens want to live together in one civil society.
Pierre Trudeau
My life is one long curve, full of turning points.
Pierre Trudeau
The most beautiful missionaries I saw were those who talked less about religion but who were very generous in their approach.
Pierre Trudeau
Democracy demands that elected members be able to realize fully the role for which they have been chosen.
Pierre Trudeau
Let us overthrow the totems, break the taboos. Or better, let us consider them cancelled. Coldly, let us be intelligent.
Pierre Trudeau
