• I'm greedier than anyone. I don't want some half-assed happiness I
  don't need some partial warmth. I want a happiness that goes on forever.
  That's impossible, though! I don't know why it is, but in this world,
  some interference is sure to come. Important things break right away.
  I've been alive for twenty-two years, and I know at least this much. It
  doesn't matter what the thing is, but it will break. That's why, from the
  beginning, it's better not to need anything.

It just became obvious to me that playing football for me is not going to be fun, not something I’m going to enjoy and it’s time for me to do something different.

• I've been vegan for 15 years, and it turns out it makes a very big impact on the environment to eat fewer animal products, which cause more greenhouse gases than all of transportation combined.

• By my count, the Deputy Prime Minister has sworn an oath of loyalty and service to Her Majesty no fewer than four times in the last two years, yet he has used his position as a minister of the Crown as a podium from which to rail against our history and our heritage. The minister says that instead of the monarchy he would prefer an entirely Canadian institution, but he fails to recognize that the monarchy is as Canadian as the House of Commons itself.
