I used to have 30 different species of tarantulas, as well as two Australian scorpions that are considered the deadliest in the world. If stung by one, a person would die in 30 minutes. But when I had kids I had to get rid of them, of course. Those were intense!
I don't think any Australian will ever forget, there will never be a Carbon Tax under a government I lead.
Public service and respect for ideas is a recurrent theme in both the American and Australian sides of my family.
[A]s a graduate student at Columbia University, I remember the a priori derision of my distinguished stratigraphy professor toward a visiting Australian drifter [a supporter of the theory of continental drift]. [. . . ] Today [. . . ] my own students would dismiss with even more derision anyone who denied the evident truth of continental drift a prophetic madman is at least amusing; a superannuated fuddy-duddy is merely pitiful.
Each Australian is a Ulysses.
We cheer everyone who goes off to Hollywood and tells American stories but telling Australian stories is the greatest thing you can do.
Id have to fight for an Australian role over an American actor, and I already have to do that overseas, so why would I have to do it back at home?
I do have a lot of Australian friends.
I've been around long enough to not take seriously statements like I am about to be crushed. I'm about how do we seek re-election of the Australian government, how we prevent Tony Abbott from being elected. The bottom line is that it should be all hands to the pump rather than saying other, frankly negative and internally divisive things.
The Australian divisions and the New Zealanders had become what they were to remain for the rest of the war the spearhead of the British Army
I'm not too fond of the typical Australian activities or culture. I'm not into surfing.
I'm Australian. I'm assimilated. I was born here - how ocker do I have to be?
It's a fun day, a day which kicks off the start of our tour, it's got great tradition - Australian cricketers just love tradition - and it's been a really pleasant day.
The Prime Minister seems now to be basing his re-election campaign on this plot line. He is saying to the Australian people, look out, the baddies behind you - hiss, boo and whatever you do, don't vote Labor. This political parody of pantomime is looking and sounding desperate.
It's unfortunate, I've been the victim of some Australian press.
There is a white girl from Australia that spits in an Australian accent, and her name is Chelsea Jane. That I can get into. Teach me Australian Hip-Hop culture. Don't come to America and try to convince me that you're Gangsta BooWe're not going to believe you if you're trying to convince us that you're out here trap shooting.
Spiders frighten me. In response to the spider alerts for Australia, please can the Australian government remove all spiders from Australia and blow them into outer space.
I'm never there enough to really keep up with what's going on in the Australian film industry. I just try and be part of it as much as I can.
Australian weather's amazing! You notice that when you go overseas.
I support all Australian films.
