Im never looking at life in terms of legacy.

I would say to young entrepreneurs and budding philanthropists - are you giving to feel good or do good?

When youre asked/told to come to Canberra by your Prime Minister, in the country I grow up in, you obey that.

This is the welfare generation, and that is incredibly sad. That will be judged in history as being far worse, I believe, than the stolen generation, because we are literally losing thousands and thousands of our indigenous brothers and sisters to the effects of welfare – drugs, gunja, low morale, alcoholism. I see it everyday and it can stop. The solution is education, training and a guaranteed opportunity.

You cannot afford a world with slavery, which literally takes someone and turns them into a machine.

If you know that something is true and just, and you give up, thats when you fail.

Australia has always encouraged the little bloke to have a go, the Aussie battler to get up.
