I Always Think The Great Parts Outlive

To Get Down To The Quick Of It, Respect Motivates Me - Not Success.

Becoming A Father, I Think It Inevitably Changes Your Perspective Of Life. I Don't Get Nearly Enough Sleep. And The Simplest Things In Life Are Completely Satisfying. I Find You Don't Have To Do As Much, Like You Don't Go On As Many Outings.

I Have Two Children And It's Amazing How In Tune They Are With Nature, With Light, With Smells, With Time.

If I Go To A Party I Don't Feel Like I Have To Be In The Centre. But I Do Find Myself Quite Often Being Placed In That Position. Even When I Was Younger At School, I Would Be Asked To Make A Speech. I Don't Remember Putting Up My Hand And All That Often But I'd Just Find Myself There.

Both My Parents Are English And Came Out To Australia In 1967. I Was Born The Following Year. My Parents, And Immigrants Like Them, Were Known As '£10 Poms.' Back Then, The Australian Government Was Trying To Get Educated British People And Canadians - To Be Honest, Educated White People - To Come And Live In Australia.
