A Quote by Maxime Bernier

I'm very different from other politicians. — © Maxime Bernier
I'm very different from other politicians.
I am cynical about politicians. My experience of politicians has been thoroughly negative. I have found that politicians are people that can not be taken at face value. There are very few politicians I have been impressed with.
One can say all they want about politicians, but politicians to other politicians, their word is almost always good.
We didn't really like each other, Simon and I, because we didn't understand each other. We're very, very, very different people from very different lives.
Politicians always criticize each other in different ways.
It doesn't matter what I say as long as I sound different from other politicians.
I remember, as a kid, going into other people's houses. Everything was different. The smells in the kitchen were different; the clothing was different. That bothered me. There's something very mysterious about other families and the way they function.
To be honest, I find most politicians very untrustworthy. When I listen to them talking - or rather, lying - I just feel there are very few politicians with integrity, so I never know who to bat for.
For us, we are all very different, our languages are very different, and our societies are very different. But if we could extract ourselves from our point of view and sort of look down at human life the way a biologist looks at other organisms, I think we could see it a different way.
Philosophically, I am very different from normal politicians, and normal consultants found that very hard to deal with.
Politicians don't laugh very often. That is their problem. Humour is very important in politics and I think the politicians should laugh more to get better results.
There are politicians who seethe with ambition all the time, and there are a lot of other politicians who don't. I'm in the second category, that's all.
The only people who say worse things about politicians that reporters do are other politicians.
Diplomats make it their business to conceal the facts, and politicians violently denounce the politicians of other countries.
I think you know and I've said it pretty loud and clear that I get along with all politicians. I felt it was an obligation to get along, including with the Clintons and including with a lot of other people. It was very important for me to get along with politicians in my business.
I'm no longer a believer in politicians endorsing other politicians.
I'll tell you what I really think about politicians. The other night I watched some politicians on television talking about Vietnam. I wanted very much to burst through the screen with a flame thrower and burn their eyes out and their balls off and then inquire from them how they would assess the action from a political point of view.
