Australia Quotes

Quotations
Quote of the Day

From the first ball England have to be very positive.

They have to keep bowling in the right areas, fielding, catching everything and batting really well.

They cannot have any weaknesses in any area if they are to beat Australia.
[how to beat Australia]

'I'd move to Los Angeles,' he once said, 'if Australia and New Zealand were swallowed by a huge tidal wave, if there was a bubonic plague in Europe and if Africa disappeared from some Martian attack.' Heat magazine, 4-12 May 2000.

'Six months before he died, my grand-father came to Australia to try to explain to me that he was dying. I was a young kid, very much into myself at the time. I was busking on the streets just to make enough money to pay my rent, There was this Japanese restaurant I'd always wanted to eat at but couldn't afford, so I suggested we go there.' It was an unfortunate choice. In Weans' weakened condition, the smell of the rice and soya sauce brought back memories of the Second World War. 'We couldn't have the talk he wanted to,' says Crowe. 'The day he died, I was in the kitchen of a flat in Woollarah, (an eastern suburb of Sydney). 'Suddenly a kookaburra bird flew in the window. It just looked at me. I knew my grandfather had died. I phoned home and my mother confirmed it. 'I insisted the bird was my grandfather's spirit, but my mom would have nothing of it.' One day last year, Crowe had a dream in which he was holding his mother and she was crying. He phoned home immediately. 'My mother said a woman who had worked closely with my grandfather had come to visit and, without prompting, had told her that on the day my grandfather died a bird had visited her as well. 'Learning this had reduced my mother to tears.' Crowe says he believes that 'with all this talk of angels, maybe they are just birds sent to us by those who have crossed over.'

Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia
View quotes by Charles M Schulz

On Wales losing 28-9 against Australia: 'No leadership, no ideas. Not even enough imagination to thump someone in the line-up when the ref wasn't looking'
View quotes by JPR Williams

I am not sure if such simulated training is going to be a help. You mean to say if we tour Australia we need to have a beer-can in our hands all the time?
View quotes by Harbhajan Singh

While the gap on Australia is closing, the Indians are realising how good it can be. They are growing up.
View quotes by Bob Woolmer

One of the strongest prejudices that one has to overcome when one visits Australia is that created by the weird jargon than passes for English in this country.
View quotes by Valerie Desmond

Having Australia to come back to keeps you sane. It's this clarity which gives Australian models an edge overseas. They have a positive mental outlook on life, and get out there and do things other models would freak out about.
View quotes by Tanya Linney

Australia 602 for 3 declared, England 20 for 3. And in the sixth test, victory is possibly slipping away from England.
View quotes by Steve Rider

An umpire in Australia undoubtedly needs to be deaf - in both ears.
View quotes by Patrick Rowley

I like it [Australia] a lot, I think it's a terrific country; they really know how to live. The natural history of the place is endlessly fascinating.
View quotes by Bill Bryson

When you look at India as a team, their record at home probably compares to Australia's as best in the terms of win record. But our performance outside gets highlighted only because the difference between our show at home and abroad is too much.
View quotes by Anil Kumble

If you put the players from Australia and England up against each other it is embarrassing.

There is no contest between them on an individual or team basis.
View quotes by Jeff Thomson

England always play under a huge amount of pressure. Australia are used to dealing with it and they just roll on.
View quotes by Stephen Fleming

I think we have to try to be as annoying as we can, and take points off Australia to give ourselves an opportunity of the big prize at the end of it.
View quotes by Graham Thorpe

The previous generation, such as Alec Stewart and Nasser Hussain, lost to Australia on many occasions.
View quotes by Andrew Strauss

I think Graham Thorpe's a massive part of England's summer, especially coming up against Australia. He's the sort of character they are going to desperately need.
View quotes by Rob Key

I just don't think they have the attack [England] to bowl Australia out twice and they rely too much on Steve Harmison.
View quotes by Darren Lehmann

It looks like the bowlers are on a hiding to nothing so I hope I don't get whiplash against Australia.
