It is the inspiration of the Olympic Games that drives people not only to compete but to improve, and to bring lasting spiritual and moral benefits to the athlete and inspiration to those lucky enough...

The food I had as a child was not complicated, but by heck it was tasty. My Nanna's cauliflower cheese was awesome, her caramel slice wonderful and I am still searching for a recipe to make her apple...

I think the thing that L.A. had on Sydney is an awesome music scene, especially for what I do.

I'm really thankful for my time in the AFL, but I'm also thankful I had to make the switch, because there was no pathway for me at that time in AFL.

My sister, myself, and my cousins would put on shows for our parents and charge them to come and watch, apparently. That's what I'm told. My parents said I knew how to milk it.

I never let anything stop me from doing what I want to do.

It occurred to me that it would benefit me to play without emotion - well, without emotion others could see, anyway. Card players profited from having a poker face so opponents wouldn't know how good...

Consider what a romantic expedition you are on; take notes.

I think my first audition was for a local musical. It was quick. I didn't get the role.

I think avocado toast is the best ever. It's my favorite.

I thought having to explain the risibility of gender codes would be mostly behind us by now.

It's the aspirations that capitalism is promoting as beautiful, positive attributes that are dangerous. All that is in the bedrooms of the poor and in the villages of the Third World, and it's like a...

I went from not being known anywhere in the world to winning junior Wimbledon and six months later playing the Australian Open. I was a victim of my own success, really.

The Government's mission is to build a strong and fair Australia capable of meeting the new challenges of the 21st century.

Having had cancer, one important thing to know is you're still the same person at the end. You're stripped down to near zero. But most people come out the other end feeling more like themselves than...

If, at the end of the day, I can look back and see pictures of all the characters I've played, and there's a smorgasbord of weirdos and interesting, odd, different characters, I'd be so happy.

I'm driven to win every single match.

Work all paled into the background as soon as I had a baby.

'The Road' reminds me of Steinbeck's 'The Grapes of Wrath.'

It must surprise people that I'm such a rap fan, but it's true. Sometimes, just staying in, putting on some rap music, and letting loose is all I need to have a good time.

I'm really great at making terrible analogies.

I think what actors have to do, what performers have to do to emotionally get to that place and have a camera and have your face 20 feet high on a screen, is such an incredible thing.

You can only learn from the best players out there, the best people, best idols, role models, whatever you want to call them.

For whatever reason, we relate to anything godlike with an English accent. The English are very proud of that. And with anything Roman or gladiators, they have an English accent. For an audience, it...

I'd just recorded it in Mariah Carey's studio. They thought the song was perfect for Nina, because she's so shy, so it was nice to have that connection with Nina in the song. It was special.

People criticize you for trying new things. I think, 'I'm new! I'm 22!' I don't know exactly what my sound is or what I want my album to sound like, so I'm not releasing it yet. While I'm...

I do feel like in filmmaking you are largely in control of the perception of you. If you want to be seen as the comedic person you've got to write a comedy and go after that.

My mum and dad both worked full-time jobs to send my sister and I to public school, and to allow us to play the sports we wanted.

It felt like, all of a sudden, I was a poster. Like I was a billboard. It felt like it was for sale.

I kind of feel like with a musical, there's so few original musicals that people just don't know what to expect.
