More quotes by Pierre Trudeau

Pierre Trudeau
It is wonderful to be despised, if, deep down, we know we are right.
Pierre Trudeau
My life is one long curve, full of turning points.
Pierre Trudeau
I do object to the sensationalism or even the voyeurism of doing things in church or out of church.
Pierre Trudeau
I was inclined to judge the validity of a man's faith more by the depth of his roots in reality and brotherhood and love. So I felt more at home, shall we say with some Zoroastrians in the Far East, than I did with some Catholic missionaries.
Pierre Trudeau
I don't see any easy way of disqualifying people on the basis that they decide not to work.
Pierre Trudeau

Pierre Trudeau
In academic life you seek to state absolute truths in politics you seek to accommodate truth to the facts around you.
Pierre Trudeau

Pierre Trudeau
I think all of us, politicians and churchmen, should do our utmost to change the society so that there would be no need for violence.
Pierre Trudeau
I believe in God, and I'm a Christian.
Pierre Trudeau
I believe a constitution can permit the co-existence of several cultures and ethnic groups with a single state.
Pierre Trudeau
We are in the extreme centre, the radical middle. That is our position.
Pierre Trudeau
People are more interested in ideas than dress.
Pierre Trudeau
A country, after all, is not something you build as the pharaohs built the pyramids, and then leave standing there to defy eternity. A country is something that is built every day out of certain basic shared values.
Pierre Trudeau
I must say that Give Peace a Chance has always seemed to me to be sensible advice.
Pierre Trudeau
