“Whatever role I serve, I’ll still continue to be a political activist for a very basic reason; I love the country, I think it deserves a good public policy, and I’ll never stop fighting for it.”

“This is why I believe in the power of kindness – when you’re in the fight of your life like I was, or when you’re in a deep struggle like I had been after the loss of Jim (Kath’s husband), someone showing up for you like that in those moments can be so powerful.”

“Enjoy life, it’s only a short time that we’re in this world. Keep busy, keep involved in activities…get involved with an organisation that could do with a bit of help fundraising.”

“We don’t know what’s going to happen to this beautiful little planet and you’ve got a beautiful life in front of you. Don’t wear a hairshirt, you go out and have fun. Always be voting for, working for and doing what you can to support the protection of this little planet because it gives us everything we have.” fiveaa.com.au
