You know, Southerners are pretty cool.

Australians have a free spirit and an ability to think outside the box, and that is why I like Australia so much.

I want to give my compliments to Australia. Ever since your government paid a few million dollars for a Jackson Pollack painting, I figure that it must be a marvellous country.

I love Australian people.

I think we Southerners have talked a fair amount of malarkey about the mystique of being Southern.

I have always been attracted to Australians and Australia.

Sometimes when Australians go overseas, it's as though the 'Aussie' is refined out of them. I don't know why. It's never happened to me, because I'm really proud of it. I'm not embarrassed about where I'm from or who I am any more. I know who I am. I don't fit in everywhere, but I know where I do fit in.

I, on the other hand, have a bit of a southern accent.

I like Australia, but every time I'm there, I feel like everybody's being sarcastic because everyone's so nice.

I truly love Australia; I miss Aussie kids and their attitude!
