Advances in science and medical research and public health policies have meant that life expectancy for Australians is one of the highest in the world.
Julie Bishop
And I liked pluralist Australia. I got a taste for pluralist Australia. I like, I like Australians and I can't believe that they're going to go to hell because they tell a good dirty joke, you know.
Thomas Keneally
At the last census it indicated that about 22 per cent of Australians were born overseas.
Julie Bishop
Australians are a fantastic bunch of people but the attention can be overwhelming for someone like me.
Cathy Freeman
Australians are geniuses with a good sense of humour.
Fred Schneider
Australians are pretty blunt and we say things how they really are.
Charlie Bell
Australians don't have a preconceived notion of what things have to be... we can go on a fantastic journey.
Yahoo Serious
Australians were unique due to our corals, our apples, our gum trees and our kangaroos.
Harold Edward Holt
Certainly the Australians were buried in Korea. But I think that from Vietnam on, all the killed were brought home to America or to Australia, in our case.
Peter Scott
Compared to the United States and certainly a lot of other countries around the world... per year, Australians do see more films.
David Pratt
For us Australians, Singapore also represents sacred soil. Almost 2000 Australians died here in the defense of your island country and our neighborhood.
Michael Jeffery
Health economists have estimated that an injection of $250 million per year in Indigenous clinical care, and $50 million in preventative care, is required to provide services at the same level as for any other group with the health conditions of Indigenous Australians.
Malcolm Fraser
I think Australians do well here because we feel a bit naughty, like we're in America and if they only knew how much fun we were having, we'd all get thrown out, you know.
Melissa George
I think Australians like a bit of vulgarity.
Julian Clary
I think probably Australians have just a little more taste than most people.
Neil Diamond
I'm in total sympathy with Dick Smith's sentiments; I only wish there were grounds for saying we Australians would never tolerate such appalling treatment of refugees being carried out in our name.
Hugh Mackay
If politicians continue to promote separatism in Australia, they should not continue to hold their seats in this parliament. They are not truly representing all Australians, and I call on the people to throw them out.
Pauline Hanson
Is it possible that literacy standards are falling because young Australians are growing up in a culture in which they can be entertained and informed, and in which they can communicate effectively, without having to master any but the most rudimentary literacy skills?
Hugh Mackay
It only takes a room of Americans for the English and Australians to realise how much we have in common.
Stephen Fry
Most Australians live in the cities on the east coast, where contact between black and white occurred as much as 200 years earlier than on the west coast - and where 95 percent of Australians are able to live 95 percent of their lives without ever seeing an Aboriginal face.
