Maurice Duplessis
Maurice Le Noblet Duplessis served as the premier of the Canadian province of
Quebec from 1936 to 1939 and 1944 to 1959. A founder and leader of the highly
conservative Union Nationale party, he rose to power after exposing the misconduct
and more..
Maurice Duplessis:Hundreds of millions in capital has been
invested to develop our resources. Let me repeat: American
capital, English capital, French capital: Welcome! #Capitalism
Maurice Duplessis:If I never read a business page, my
admiration for him would be complete.
#Books - Reading
Maurice Duplessis:I kiss his [the priest's] ring and he kisses
my a***. #Kisses and Kissing
Maurice Duplessis:The period leaves no one indifferent. And
that was our goal. We present the facts. It's up to the public to
decide.
#Goals
Maurice Duplessis:The saying goes that after the death of
every great man there's a long period of ingratitude. I find
Maurice Duplessis's period is lasting pretty long.
#Death and Dying
Maurice Duplessis:This is about an admitted attempt,
encouraged from outside, to challenge and break the State's
authority. That is intolerable. Whoever deviates from this policy
that I have established, privately or publicly, will be expelled
from the Union Nationale.
#Writers and Writing
Maurice Duplessis:Less than fifteen cents to the province and
more than twenty-five cents to Ottawa, this is far from being
excessive!
#Age and Aging
Maurice Duplessis:The bishops eat out of my hand. #Churches
Maurice Duplessis:Let us remain attached to the land... In the
country, there are stability, common sense and strong religious
convictions. #America
Maurice Duplessis:Over the last 40 years, talking about
Duplessis has become like talking about the devil himself.

Maurice Duplessis:Before Duplessis died, we’d all go to church
and make our sign [of the cross], and a year later we didn’t go
to Mass any more. So we looked for another set of values, one
that was all-enveloping, like the Church.

Maurice Duplessis:Education is like alcohol; some people can't
take it. #Education
Maurice Duplessis:As long as I can keep the Jesuits scrapping
with the Dominicans, I can get on with the business of the
province. #Reason
Maurice Duplessis:The province’s [Québec's] strength lies in
the depth of its religious feeling... It must be the citadel of
Christian civilization in Canada and even the entire North
American continent. #Quotations
Maurice Duplessis:Refers to the party colours of the Unione
Nationale and the Liberals. #Politicians and Politics
Maurice Duplessis:You know, elections are not won with
prayers. #Prayer
Maurice Duplessis:Two weeks ago, I pointed out that the
Provincial Government had the firm intention to take the most
rigorous and efficient measures possible to get rid of those
who under the names of Jehovah's Witnesses, distribute
circulars which in my opinion, are not only injurious for
Quebec and its population, but which are of a very libellous
and seditious character. The propaganda of the Jehovah's
Witnesses cannot be tolerated and there are more than 400 of
them now before the courts in Montreal, Quebec, Trois-Rivières
and other centers. #Rebellion
