“And the sun sank again on the grand Australian bush – the nurse and tutor of eccentric minds, the home of the weird, and of much that is different from things in other lands.”

Henry Lawson, While the Billy Boils

“And the bush hath friends to meet him, and their kindly voices greet him
In the murmur of the breezes and the river on its bars,
And he sees the vision splendid of the sunlit plains extended,
And at night the wond’rous glory of the everlasting stars.”

A.B. Paterson, Clancy Of The Overflow

“Beer makes you feel the way you ought to feel without beer.”

Henry Lawson, Over the Sliprails
