If some countries have too much history, we have too much geography.   William Lyon Mackenzie King  
"Once a nation parts with the control of its currency and credit, it matters not who makes the nations laws. Usury, once in control, will wreck any nation. Until the control of the issue of currency and credit is restored to government and recognized as its most sacred responsibility, all talk of the sovereignty of parliament and of democracy is idle and futile." Upon nationalizing the Bank of Canada in 1938   William Lyon Mackenzie King

Often the best part of your work will have nothing to do with potions and powders, but with the exercise of an influence of the strong upon the weak, of the righteous upon the wicked, of the wise upon the foolish.  William Osler 
Observe, record, tabulate, communicate. Use your five senses... Learn to see, learn to hear, learn to feel, learn to smell, and know that by practice alone you can become expert.  William Osler 
Canada is the linchpin of the English-speaking world.   Winston Churchill
