Quotes by Robin Boyd  (?)

“Not prepared to recognize where, when, or what he is living, the Australian consciously and subconsciously directs his artificial environment to be uncommitted, tentative, temporary, a nondescript economic-functionalist background on which he can hang the features which for the moment appeal to his wandering, restless eye.”
Robin Boyd, The Australian Ugliness: Text Classics: The ultimate guide to national architecture, environmental design and Australian identity, from Text Classics

“The Australian is forcefully loquacious, until the moment of expressing any emotion. He is aggressively committed to equality and equal-opportunity for all men, except for black Australians. He has high assurance in anything he does combined with a gnawing lack of confidence in anything he thinks.”
Robin Boyd, The Australian Ugliness
