Welcome to my personal Wikipedian userpage! I have a blog! See it, now! Also, do not forget that I love to hear from you! And I think exclamation marks are great, don't you?!
Liberlogos is an enthusiast of arts, politics, psychology, cultures and nations of the world, and many other passions. He is a degree owner from the oh-so-prestigious Collège Brébeuf of Montreal and also proudly studied at the Séminaire Saint-Joseph (go check the great article; I wrote it!) of Trois-Rivières and Concordia University. He is a Quebecer, a citizen of the Americas and citizen of the world. He believes in radical compassion, nationalism with internationalism, in humanitarianism, feminism, atheism and socialist/social democraticleft-wing politics. In jest, he also likes to write his description at the third person.
Nickname
Liberlogos is the combination of two elements. Logos is a Greek word meaning things like "word", "thought", "speech" and "reason". It represents one part of my interests and beliefs, one that is expressed thought my penchant for art, communication, knowledge, psychology and, well, Wikipedia. Liber can be used in Latin to refer to freedom. This represents my interest for cultures and their uniqueness that is expressed through freedom. It also evokes the principles of Wikipedia, as well as Dionysus, promoter of civilization, lover of peace, patron deity of the theater and god of wine.

I created this award, the Quebec Barnstar of National Merit. This does not forbid anyone eventually awarding it to me, mind you! ;)The Canadian Content Award: This is for outstanding contributions to Canadian related pages on Wikipedia (this was awarded to the Quebec Wikipedians' Notice Board, which I developped).

What is a sandbox? Well, there's sand, you see, and there's a box. No really, see Wikipedia:Sandbox.
There is a time when quiet courage and audacity become for a people, at the key moments of its existence, the only form of adequate caution. If it does not then accept the calculated risk of the great steps, it can miss its career forever, exactly like the man who is afraid of life.
Is it not in dreams however that are born most of the projects that are worth it?
You see things and you say: "Why?". But I dream things that never were and I say: "Why not?". (play)
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world. The unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
Do not do unto others as you expect they should do unto you. Their tastes may not be the same.
Lack of money is the root of all evil.
Democracy is a system ensuring that the people are governed no better than they deserve.
In the battle of life, it is not the critic who counts; nor the one who points out how the strong person stumbled, or where the doer of a deed could have done better. The credit belongs to the person who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; who does actually strive to do deeds; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotion, spends oneself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at worst, if he or she fails, at least fails while daring greatly. Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those timid spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.
