"Livelihoods and whole communities throughout the Murray-Darling Basin……" — Quentin Bryce
"Livelihoods and whole communities throughout the Murray-Darling Basin have been imperilled by the workings of drought, fire, flood, acid mud and human action over many decades. In the rescues and the cleanups and the long hauls, I see the same attitude over and again. People just rally and get on with it."
