Famous quotes containing the words australian, rules and/or football:

    “Beyond the horizon, or even the knowledge, of the cities along the coast, a great, creative impulse is at work—the only thing, after all, that gives this continent meaning and a guarantee of the future. Every Australian ought to climb up here, once in a way, and glimpse the various, manifold life of which he is a part.”
    —Vance Palmer (1885–1959)

    “Learn hence for ancient rules a just esteem;
    To copy Nature is to copy them.”
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    “... in the minds of search committees there is the lingering question: Can she manage the football coach?”
    —Donna E. Shalala (b. 1941)
