Thomas Keneally
“Righteous Person, this title being a peculiarly Israeli honor based on an ancient tribal assumption that in the mass of Gentiles, the God of Israel would always provide a leavening of just men.”
Thomas Keneally, Schindler's List

William Kely McClung
“Monstrous not just for what they were, but for what was done to them, as pitiable as Mary Shelly’s creation, as human and forlorn.”
William Kely McClung, Super Ninja: The Sword of Heaven

Max Nowaz
“I’m fucking asking you!” The man stood his ground.
From the corner of his eye Adam could see the other man getting up from his chair. It was time to go. Adam head-butted the first man who was blocking his way, and then kneed him in the groin for good measure. As the man doubled up, Adam pushed past him.”
Max Nowaz, Get Rich or Get Lucky

“They worked hard all their lives, what they basically did was, they built a little Ukraine, a little society for themselves here in Brisbane. They did this in all the cities … not a ghetto, it wasn’t inward looking to that extent, but it was inward looking in the sense that it was a place to go—somewhere where you could identify; where you could be understood; go about remembering and preserving your roots. - Walter Sucharsky, 2nd Generation Australian”
Peter Brune, Suffering, Redemption and Triumph: The first wave of post-war Australian immigrants 1945-66
