Quote:I can blame that on Australians having a grossly inflated sense of importance in the world. We think we are as important as the United Kingdom, while in fact we are about as important as the Netherlands or Poland.
A bit of a non sequitor when speaking of the games. Sports mad Australia has an excellent record of success in the Olympic Games,which far outweighs our size.
I won't get into a fatuous argument about relative importance; it's irrelevant to me. Australia is my home and the centre of my world.
