Lionel Murphy quotes:

The people of Australia would be staggered to learn that Australia has no national development plan.

The Menzies Government, by its participation in the plans for the development of other nations, can see the virtue of planning for them but apparently cannot see the virtue of a plan for Australia.

It is a great privilege for any man to become a member of the Senate.

Where there is a will there is a way. And this must be the way not of compulsion but of cooperation... No government and no plan can succeed without it.
