A Collection of Loyal Quotes: Part One

11/10/2014

 
I'm currently working on a follow-up to my previous article about the state of academic research on monarchy. But since that could take a while to finish I figured I'd see what quotes I could dig up from supporters of monarchy in the meantime:
Picture
"By adhering to the monarchical principle we avoid one defect inherent in the Constitution of the United States. By the election of the president by a majority and for a short period, he never is the sovereign and chief of the nation. He is never looked up to by the whole people as the head and front of the nation. He is at best but the successful leader of a party. This defect is all the greater on account of the practice of reelection. During his first term of office he is employed in taking steps to secure his own reelection, and for his party a continuance of power. We avoid this by adhering to the monarchical principle – the sovereign whom you respect and love. I believe that it is of the utmost importance to have that principle recognized so that we shall have a sovereign who is placed above the region of party – to whom all parties look up; who is not elevated by the action of one party nor depressed by the action of another; who is the common head and sovereign of all."

~John A. Macdonald, 1st Prime Minister of Canada (Tory)

Picture
"Canadians should realise when they are well off under the Monarchy. For the vast majority of Canadians, being a Monarchy is probably the only form of government acceptable to them. I have always been for parliamentary democracy and I think the institution of Monarchy with the Queen heading it all has served Canada well."

~Pierre Elliott Trudeau, 15th Prime Minister of Canada (Grit) 

Picture
"But for all those who don't want the Queen there are easily as many who don't want a President and even more who certainly would not want one if they knew who it would be. As you can readily see, I have given more thought to this subject than most and I have reached my own conclusion. God save the Queen."


~Dalton Camp, journalist, politician, and commentator
