"It will never be Hollywood, the same way people think it should be. I think it will grow and it will be healthy and it will expand into more than one production house."
People
"We are the only state that does not have a State Film Corporation there to support the commercial industry."
Film
"We discovered that there was a great deal of keen interest in America for the kinds of products that we thought could be produced here. Also there was an interest in Britain for Australian material generally."
Thought
"The dichotomy between art and industry is totally dysfunctional in terms of film."
Art
"I see any production of any nature being good for the development of the whole industry."
Nature
"You have always had individual directors who begin in the advertising or commercial world, but they are probably exceptions rather than the traditional pattern."
Advertising
"The more commercial work that is happening, the more people are operating cameras and are setting up studio lights, the greater the opportunity for drama production to happen."
Work
"Ten years ago I was not heavily involved in the film world but on reflection it was a boom time with the mineral boom happening, so there was immense growth for industrial training films, documentaries to do with the mining, and the outback world."
Time
"In 1975 Australia was producing things like Picnic at Hanging Rock, in other words films that I would consider still some of the finest products to come out of Australia. I think that our quality now is less than it was then."
Quality
"We are not yet at the point where our size, our being the drama industry, is sufficient to support full time professional crews, and that is very very important."

"I made the mistake of using my earned sick time at the W. M. Keck Observatory for essential surgery. When I returned to work the management team demanded my resignation numerous times, citing my essential surgery as a reason. The W. M. Keck Observatory taught me that using earned sick time in the USA may put your future employment at significant risk."
