Quotes
- “I'm not in favour of going back to a White Australia policy. I do believe that, if it [non-European immigration] is in the eyes of some in the community, it's too great, it would be in our immediate term interest and supporting of social cohesion if it were slowed down a little, so the capacity of the community to absorb it was greater.”
- “I don't think it is wrong, racist, immoral or anything, for a country to say 'we will decide what the cultural identity and the cultural destiny of this country will be and nobody else'.”
- “.. you must remember that the Australian voter has a short memory span... in fact, less than 14 days in most cases!”
- “Truth is absolute, truth is supreme, truth is never disposable in national political life.”
- “I've never believed in lower wages. Never. Never believed in lower wages, I've never believed in lower wages as an economic instrument.”
- “By the year 2000 I would like to see an Australian nation that feels comfortable and relaxed about three things. I would like to see them comfortable and relaxed about their history. I would like to see them comfortable and relaxed about the present and I'd also like to see them comfortable and relaxed about the future.”
