Quotes
- “For we have here a beautiful land that none could e’er knock down,The brightest jewel that ever was known in dear old George's crown;The brightest jewel that ever was known and never can be a failure.Although the damn Labor party is doing its best to ruin Australia...”
- “Bedford could be one of the rudest of men when he chose to exercise his wit at the expense of others. He happened to be a guest at a party given by a lady of some social pretensions. There arrived to it a husband and wife—the wife, big dominant, and masculine, the husband, small, meek, and submissive. Of them, the hostess said to Bedford, ‘Mr Bedford, I want to introduce you to my friends, Mr and Mrs So-and-so.’ Said Bedford, bowing to the couple, ‘Pleased to meet you. Which is which?’”
- “The Governor was a little pink old gentleman; so soft in the skin that he seemed to be stuffed with moss.”
- “Pretty as a picture and poor as a crow.”
- “Never was a continent naturally so clean, and made so dirty, as Australia. There was not an animal pest, scarcely a vegetable pest; fools and the old world supplied them all.”
- “His moments of most sentimental recollection were when he thought of the beauty of the sausages he had manufactured.”
