Seeland / Zealand Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Seeland / Zealand:

People in New Zealand go out of their way to not be impressed by things. Melanie Lynskey

When I was a child in the 1940s and early 1950s, my parents and grandparents spoke of Britain as home, and New Zealand had this strong sense of identity and coherence as being part of the commonwealth and a the identity of its people as being British.

Michael King

From space, the earth appears predominantly blue; the clouds are brilliant white. Surprisingly, you don't see much green, although Ireland looks green, and so do Scandinavia and New Zealand. The deserts are brick red and really stand out.

Helen Sharman

I've been round Japan, Hong Kong, Korea, and China in the last few months and the message that I've been taking is that New Zealand is building an up market dynamic into a connected economy. And that we are not the old-fashioned, ship mutton kind of product the people associate their export in work.

Helen Clark

Many European countries, as well as Australia, Canada, Israel, and New Zealand, have adopted legislation that creates a 'public lending right', where the government recognises that enabling hundreds of people to read a single copy of a book provides a public good, but that doing so is likely to reduce sales of the book.

Peter Singer

By and large, women in New Zealand are fortunate compared with some other countries, including many in our own region. But there is still progress to be made.

Jenny Shipley

I see the great continuities in New Zealand history as being decency and common sense and up until now when we've confronted these things we've been able to talk them through, and I'm sure we will with this issue as well.

Michael King

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

The fact is Qatar, Etihad, Emirates, Singapore, Garuda, all of the three Chinese airlines, Air New Zealand - the fact is that international aviation relies very much upon agreements between nation-states, and it is not an area in which you have free market operations.

Anthony Albanese

It was always something I knew I was capable of and from an early age my mother was involved in the film industry. She used to work at a production company. So I was exposed to a renaissance period of films in New Zealand back in the early 80's.

Karl Urban

My second novel, 'The Luminaries,' is set in the New Zealand gold rushes of the 1860s, though it's not really a historical novel in the conventional sense. So far, I've been describing it as 'an astrological murder mystery.'

Eleanor Catton

New Zealand was one of the most beautiful countries to drive through for the scenery and the vast scale of the place.

Louise Nurding

Well, there have been periods in the past when prime ministers of Australia and New Zealand were at each others' throats publicly and frequently. That's not productive at all.

Helen Clark

The most scared I'd ever been was the first time I sang at a rugby match, Australia versus New Zealand, in front of one hundred thousand people. I had a panic attack the night before because people have been booed off and never worked again... just singing one song, the national anthem.

Hugh Jackman

Certainly, when I left New Zealand, there was no career there as a comedian. I was doing more live gigs than anyone, and I was maybe doing three a week. Even then, it would often be the same people in the audience, going, 'I saw you on Tuesday, mate!'

Rhys Darby

Everywhere you turn in New Zealand, there's something exciting to do. It's the gem of the world. It's so far away from the madness, and so you get that element. It was just stunning.

Wes Bentley

I always like to look for adventure when I go away. I have gone on several horse adventures with my wife - from Guangxi we went up to the High Tibetan region. We also went along the Hurunui River on horseback in the South Island of New Zealand.

Antony Gormley

New Zealand is a pretty no-nonsense place to work, like Australia. I mean it doesn't falter to anyone.

Dustin Clare

I myself prefer my New Zealand eggs for breakfast.

Queen Elizabeth II

New Zealand obviously is fully integrated into the global economy.

Richard Quest

If you can beat New Zealand, then you're probably going to win the World Cup.

Brian O'Driscoll

Living in New Zealand, that's something that you'd like to do as an actor, but very rarely do you get an opportunity to get such a good springboard as 'The Hobbit' to help you get international work.

Dean O'Gorman

New Zealand, by the way, where I was ambassador, has had two women prime ministers - one from either party.

Carol Moseley Braun

I love having the laid-back, easy-going, family-priority nature of New Zealand, but I'm certainly enjoying the States in terms of the career opportunities and the enthusiasm I get to find work.

Rose McIver

Lake Taupo is on the north island of New Zealand and in the countryside. I absolutely fell in love with it.

Juan Pablo Galavis

New Zealand is a country of thirty thousand million sheep, three million of whom think they are human.

Barry Humphries

New Zealand's Daniel Vettori is a very good bowler.

Sachin Tendulkar

Coming from New Zealand, all the music I listen to is not made by New Zealanders. People never come to New Zealand to play a show because it's in the middle of nowhere.

Lorde

Well, we don't think for a moment that either the U.S. or Australia are out to damage the New Zealand economy, but if there were a sustained period in which they had a free-trade agreement and New Zealand didn't have that same arrangement with the States, that could be both trade- and investment-distorting.

Helen Clark

I've never been to New Zealand before. But one of my role models, Xena, the warrior princess, comes from there.

Madeleine Albright

Actually, parts of New Zealand remind me of Suffolk. There's not many flat bits, but just the atmosphere there. There's a kind of a core tranquility about it, a kind of assuredness that this is fairly close to approaching the perfect way to be.

Bernard Hill

I've been lucky in life, that's for sure, but it all started with being born in the greatest country in the world - New Zealand.

Rhys Darby

Sure I can sit around and do absolutely nothing for the next nine years and I might survive that long but it's not going to take New Zealand anywhere.

John Key

I think it's inevitable that New Zealand will become a republic and that would reflect the reality that New Zealand is a totally sovereign-independent 21st century nation 12,000 miles from the United Kingdom.

Helen Clark

I acquired quite a lot of technical skill and got quite a long way with my painting, but I never felt I was doing what New Zealand was about with my paint.

Ngaio Marsh

On many occasions New Zealand has spoken about the need to ensure that women's concerns are fully integrated into all aspects of the United Nations' activities and structures, not marginalised in one part of the Secretariat.

Jenny Shipley

I put on close to 60 pounds for 'Genesis,' an independent movie from New Zealand.
