Australian

"Australia, noun. A Country lying in the South Sea, whose industrial and commercial development has been unspeakably retarded by an unfortunate dispute among geographers as to whether it is a continent or an island."

Ambrose Bierce

"If you find an Australian indoors, it’s a fair bet that he will have a glass in his hand."

Jonathan Aitken

"The traditional dress of the Australian cricketer is the baggy green cap on the head and the chip on the shoulder. Both are ritualistically assumed."

Simon Barnes

"The Australian Book of Etiquette is a very slim volume."

Paul Theroux

"You feel free in Australia. There is a great relief in the atmosphere – a relief from tension, from pressure, an absence of control of will or form. The Skies open above you and the areas open around you."

D.H. Lawrence
