I will be Green until the day I die, if not for a long time after.

Behind every successful man there's a lot of unsuccessful years.

I am aware that one should always make room for renewal in politics. A democracy is the healthier for the turnover of the depth of talent there is in its community.

Exxon, Coca-Cola, BHP Billiton and News Corporation have much more say in organising the global agenda than the planet's 5 billion mature-age voters without a ballot box.

We are all born bonded to nature; that's why we put depictions of flowers and forests, rather than bulldozers or log piles, on our walls.

The future will either be green or not at all.

I didn't want to be a shock absorber; I wanted to deliver the shock.

There are better alternatives... Australia should be exporting its solar technology, not its uranium.

In securing the future of the planet, we secure happiness for ourselves. One of the aims of the Greens is to turn around the tide of pessimism amongst the young people of the world.

The Greens will continue to champion a fairer society rather than simply the economy and to champion the parliament rather than simply the stock exchange .

Globally the Greens have arisen like a spontaneous combustion, a reaction to the narrow-minded state-backed exploitation of resources and wealth for a few at the expense of the many.

The best method for getting away with something outrageous is to do it right in front of people, and then tell them they’re not seeing what they think they’re seeing.

When a person acts in accordance to God’s standards, he gets God’s wisdom.

I pay attention to my diet to be a healthier gymnast, but I'm not obsessive over it.

My wife comes from a foodie family so I've been indoctrinated into that. I had sweetbreads the other night, and I have to say, not my favorite thing in the world You're eating a gland.

I had a system, and the system worked.

I think my favorite place to eat dinner is the movie theater. Dirty dogs, a big thing of nachos and a Cherry Coke - and I'm good.

Achievers can almost literally taste success because they imagine their goals in such vivid detail. Setbacks only seem to add spice and favor to the final taste of victory.

I was only interested in scoring goals. I wasn't interested in anything else.

Eventually, I'd love to be known as a character actor.

I also ask you my friends not to condemn me entirely to the mill of mathematical calculations, and allow me time for philosophical speculations, my only pleasures.
