Coitus is random, children are definite.

In a way Australia is like Catholicism. The company is sometimes questionable and the landscape is grotesque. But you always come back.

So nonetheless given the importance that was placed on sport in Australia, I wanted to be part of that scene, particularly since I had felt very strongly in my early schooling being marginalised even in the Catholic school.

I must apologise because I know all writers have memories of being on the outer because it's the children on the side of the playground who become the dangerous writers.

And I definitely wanted to be a writer, but I felt a duty now, having used up those educational resources, I felt a duty to the church and my parents to become a priest.

The principle was, death should not be entered like some snug harbor. It should be an unambiguous refusal to surrender.

Whoever saves one life, saves the world entire.
