“Peace will not come out of a clash of arms but out of justice lived and done by unarmed nations in the face of odds.”
Mahatma Gandhi
“To be or not to be that is the question. Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or take arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing, end them.”
William Shakespeare
“We want a sound economy to be able to offer better living for all families. A small business as the backbone of Maltese economy and burdening this sector of the economy does not make economic sense. They are the key to our economic success.”
Joseph Muscat
“Do not be influenced by political parties on the divorce issue. We are still waiting Prime Minister Gonzi to say that all PN supporters are free to vote as they wish". Our country needs to be more European, more compassionate and tolerant. Even if I am alone speaking on these rights, it is fundamental for our country to be compassionate and tolerant”
“We need a system of childcare centres that really works and that is affordable. Women on the minimum wage cannot afford childcare centres. Besides, we need more flexibility at the workplace. There needs to be a change in mentality, also with respect to responsibility sharing in the family. We would like to reignite the flame of feminism in society.””
“Less burdens, more qualitative work and planning the future is what family policy should be all about, and not standing against divorce, you all know my position: don’t let any party tell you what to do. It’s up to you and your conscience”
“I will respect what people will vote. People who fought for what they thought was right even though the majority was against them inspire me. In the past, the “minority” fought for women to gain their voting rights, for 18-year-olds to be able to vote, for those who wanted Malta to be independent, ruled by its own government, those who were against homosexuality listed as a crime. Even if alone, I will keep on fighting for the civil rights which our country needs to work on.”
