Zitat des Tages über Australier / Australians:

I am deeply committed to the cause of Indigenous Australians, and not just because of the Apology, but the big challenges which lie ahead in closing the gap. Kevin Rudd

Is it possible that literacy standards are falling because young Australians are growing up in a culture in which they can be entertained and informed, and in which they can communicate effectively, without having to master any but the most rudimentary literacy skills?

Hugh Mackay

Australians are a fantastic bunch of people but the attention can be overwhelming for someone like me.

Cathy Freeman

Black Saturday reminded many Australians of what they know only too well: that of all the advanced economies, Australia is perhaps the one most vulnerable to climate change.

Richard Flanagan

That was the big effect Lord of the Rings had on me. It was discovering New Zealand. And even more precious were the people- not at all like the Australians.

Ian Mckellen

Australians are geniuses with a good sense of humour.

Fred Schneider

Those of you who have spent time with Australians know that we are not given to overstatement. By nature we are laconic speakers and by conviction we are realistic thinkers.

Julia Gillard

I think Australians do well here because we feel a bit naughty, like we're in America and if they only knew how much fun we were having, we'd all get thrown out, you know.

Melissa George

The idea of having Australians upset at me is just awful.

Craig Ferguson

Health economists have estimated that an injection of $250 million per year in Indigenous clinical care, and $50 million in preventative care, is required to provide services at the same level as for any other group with the health conditions of Indigenous Australians.

Malcolm Fraser

If 30 Australians drowned in Sydney Harbour, it would be a national tragedy. But when 30 or more refugees drown off the Australian coast, it is a political question.

Richard Flanagan

Australians were unique due to our corals, our apples, our gum trees and our kangaroos.

Harold Edward Holt

Australians are a passionate lot. We are also a very practical lot.

Kevin Rudd

We moved, and there was a golden era in the '40s when we were so conscious of who we were as Australians.

Graeme Murphy

I'm definitely attracted to other Australians; I have a laid-back attitude to life that I feel is very Australian; I love a good barbie.

Isla Fisher

For us Australians, Singapore also represents sacred soil. Almost 2000 Australians died here in the defense of your island country and our neighborhood.

Michael Jeffery

With Australians we're saying we're going to win before we start playing and pretty much keep on saying that.

Shane Warne

It's very easy for Australians living in big cities to either romanticise or demonise the situation in Aboriginal places - to kind of look at things through the 'noble innocents' prism or through the 'chronically dysfunctional' prism, and I suspect that is so often the case.

Tony Abbott

Australians are pretty blunt and we say things how they really are.

Charlie Bell

I am deeply committed to the cause of Indigenous Australians, and not just because of the Apology, but the big challenges which lie ahead in closing the gap.

Kevin Rudd

Sorry Day falls on the eve of Reconciliation Week, giving us the chance to ask whether we are making progress in the wider challenge of reconciling Indigenous and other Australians.

Malcolm Fraser

Advances in science and medical research and public health policies have meant that life expectancy for Australians is one of the highest in the world.

Julie Bishop

You know, every country needs another country to mock, and Australians seem to be pretty good at impersonating American people. Maybe it's because all the movies and music and TV you see there is from America, so we just have the knack for it.

Callan McAuliffe

On average, the Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese are more similar to each other and are different from Australians, Israelis and the Swedes, who in turn are similar to each other and are different from Nigerians, Kenyans, and Jamaicans.

J. Philippe Rushton

I am libertarian, and Americans generally are, more than, say, Canadians and Australians.

Joel Salatin

The Australia to 2050 report highlights something that is well understood by South Australians, that infrastructure plays a key role in long-term economic expansion.

Kevin Rudd

This game is something Australians really look forward to.

Matthew Hayden

On average, Australians watch more than three hours of television a day, compared with 12 minutes a day spent by the average couple talking to each other.

Hugh Mackay

Australians have a fantastic sense of humour and incredible taste. I was there for 'Bend It Like Beckham,' and I had a great time. Aussies loved it, and I think 'Bride & Prejudice' is going to do well, too, because it's all about having a good time.

Gurinder Chadha

Australians don't have a preconceived notion of what things have to be... we can go on a fantastic journey.

Yahoo Serious

Most Australians who've got an ear can do an American accent because we grow up listening to them on television and in movies.

Jacki Weaver

At the last census it indicated that about 22 per cent of Australians were born overseas.

Julie Bishop

The Australians have a scientific approach and a very strong professionalism, a passion to do the best. Theirs is the best wool. And Loro Piana wants the best.

Pier Luigi Loro Piana

I think Australians like a bit of vulgarity.

Julian Clary

Even the Australians don't know how beautiful their own country is. Particularly where we were shooting 'The Straits.' Most of my stuff was done on an aboriginal settlement on the south shore, opposite Cairns, which I believe was the site where the last person was eaten in Australia.

Brian Cox

I see lots of differences between Australians and Americans - but as mothers, I think we're pretty much alike!

Liane Moriarty

For years I've wanted to write about the Australian countryside, but, like most Australians, I've only got a tourist's knowledge of it. I thought that if I disobeyed that basic rule of writing - write about what you know - I'd write a thin and inauthentic book.
