shab_80085: Finally, another town to the northwest of here, Winton, is where Banjo Paterson wrote Waltzing Matilda, the unofficial anthem of the country. "Waltzing" was the term used when traveling on foot, and a matilda was the name for the swag bag slung over the back.
ClaudeMonteath: According to Banjo Paterson, Australian ethnogenesis ultimately came to its fruition on the hills of Gallipoli:
“Our old world diff’rences are dead,
Like weeds beneath the plough,
For English, Scotch, and Irish-bred,
They're all Australians now!”

cowboycoleridge: The man that holds his own is good enough.
And the Snowy River riders on the mountains make their home,
Where the river runs those giant hills between;
I have seen full many horsemen since I first commenced to roam,
But nowhere yet such horsemen have I seen.
- Banjo Paterson

dadmatho: The Bard from the Bush; I notice some affection here for Banjo Paterson. His poetry was one thing his politics another.
Paterson was a staunch conservative who made it out of Sydney to the bush once. Tom Groggin station, whereas Henry Lawson worked for years in the bush.
