Politics Is A Game Of Friends.

A Successful Politician Must Not Only Be Able To Read The Mood Of The Public, He Must Have The Skill To Get The Public On His Side. The Public Is Moved By Mood More Than Logic, By Instinct More Than Reason, And That Is Something That Every Politician Must Make Use Of Or Guard Against.

To Be Frank, Politics Is About Wanting Power, Getting It, Exercising It, And Keeping It.

A Man Can't Ask For Much More Than The Chance To Make A Difference In His Chosen Field Of Work. Politics Is My Vocation. I'm Forever Grateful For The Opportunity To Contribute To This Great Country Of Ours. I Know I Am A Better Person For It.

I Was Proud To Have Been The Anti-establishment Candidate After More Than Twenty Years In Politics, A Small Town Guy Fighting For The Ordinary Canadian.

The Problem Was, I Enjoyed Question Period Too Much And Loved The Challenge It Provided. Far From Being A Dreaded Burden, It Had Become An Exciting Part Of My Life; Opposition Members Attacked Me, I Fought Back, I Won Or Lost Or Held Them To Draw, And The Next Day We Did It All Over Again.
