Famous quotes containing the words australia and/or usage:

    “I like Australia less and less. The hateful newness, the democratic conceit, every man a little pope of perfection.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “Pythagoras, Locke, Socrates—but pages
    Might be filled up, as vainly as before,
    With the sad usage of all sorts of sages,
    Who in his life-time, each was deemed a bore!
    The loftiest minds outrun their tardy ages.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
