Quotable quotes from Bob Ford,

the Mayor of Toronto

Peter Wu & Others

18 November 2013

They are more than quotable quotes, they are real gems of wisdom from a very straight-talking man who happens to be the leader of one of the biggest and best known cities in the world. What makes him different is that he doesn’t give a damn about being ‘politically correct’. He speaks from his heart.

I applaud his comment about the Orientals, and being an Oriental myself, I happen to agree with him that some amongst us behave like a bunch of pricks, especially those from you know where.

1. “Those Oriental people work like dogs. They work their hearts out. They are workers non-stop. They sleep beside their machines. That's why they're successful in life.” They are also a “Bunch of pricks.”

2. “A drug is not bad. A drug is a chemical compound. The problem comes in when people who take drugs treat them like a license to behave like an asshole.”

3. “If we’re looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn’t test people for drugs, we should test them for

stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power.”
