You know you have a lot of impatience with reality as you see it when you're a young man and full of dynamism and strength and ideals and so on.

If you live in a society where those who govern society and determine its path do not respect freedom of speech and freedom of religion, freedom of choice, freedom of assembly, and if there is no democratic process and no way to change the order of things by reason and peace and love and so on, and if, as a result of that, certain ideas in which you believe are being crushed, then I think the only way you can defend yourself against this violence is in using violence of your own.

I will use all my strength to bring about a just society to a nation living in a tough world.

I know the usual answer of Christ using violence to get the sellers out of the temple, but to me this was impatience rather than violence.

I think it's good that you test the reality that surrounds you in your neighbourhood with the reality as it is in other parts of the world; you come up with a better judgment. I'm not meaning that literally you can only do that and not go to school at all but in terms of enrichment of a personality I think it's a fabulous thing.

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.

I feel very deeply for Canada, and l believe most Canadians do.
