Welcome to my personal Wikipedian userpage! Do not forget that I love to hear from you. Please also check out my personal page and blog right here!

Liberlogos, also known as Benoît Rheault (full birth name: Benoît Patrick Rheault), born on July 30 1979 in Quebec City, Quebec and brought up in the Quebec Beauce and in Trois-Rivières, is a Montrealer and proud Wikipedian (in the English, French, source & quote, and now commons versions). As of May 10, 2005 at 11:08pm, he has accomplished 4471 edits (which can sometimes even scare himself).

Profile

Liberlogos is an art and a politics enthusiast. He is a degree owner from the oh-so-prestigious Collège Brébeuf of Montreal and also proudly studied at the Séminaire Saint-Joseph of Trois-Rivières and Concordia University. He is a Quebecer, a citizen of the Americas and citizen of the world. He believes in nationalism with internationalism, in humanitarianism, feminism, atheism and socialist/social democratic left-wing politics. In jest, he also likes to write his description at the third person. See also: Picture of Liberlogos (me).

Why

My presence

Why... the eternal question. Why am I here? Why do I like Wikipedia? Call me crazy, but I like brackets. I came, I saw an outlet for my obsession, I enrolled.

My nickname

The name Liberlogos has a spectacular origin. However, I am too tired to write it right now. Soon though!

Languages

These are the languages for which I have a functional knowledge. I love foreign languages and cultures. Therefore, I'm planning on learning many more tongues (I swear!). I'm planning to get more seriously into my study of German, Dutch and Swedish, and maybe Spanish. Klingon is not in the cards.

Favorite quotes

  • Confieso que he vivido. ('I confess that I have lived', title of autobiography)
  • 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.
  • To be informed is to be free. (himself quoting someone else)
  • It is more important to understand crime than to condemn it.
  • Although I am not a Communist I refused to fall in line by hating them.
  • The aim of psychoanalysis is to relieve people of their neurotic unhappiness so that they can be normally unhappy.
  • The first human who hurled an insult instead of a stone was the founder of civilization.
  • Every time you get involved, it is a victory.
  • Always acknowledge a fault. This will throw those in authority off their guard and give you an opportunity to commit more.
  • I have come to the conclusion that politics are too serious a matter to be left to the politicians.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatever that it is not utterly absurd.
  • If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Then quit. No use being a damn fool about it.
  • The major problems of the world today can be solved only if we improve our understanding of human behavior.

Stress testing

This highly scientific testing shows my stress level.

Political testing

This is a test of my political leanings. No system is perfect so it might not be exact! It still kinda shows that I am not the proverbial right-wing nut.
