Quote by Henry Lawson
On the same line of reasoning, if Australians were to be Australians, or rather if Australians were as separate from any other nation as Australia from any other land, there would be no jealousy between them on England's account.
Summary
This quote suggests that if Australians embraced their own unique identity and considered themselves distinct from other nations, particularly England, there would be no feelings of jealousy or resentment towards England. It implies that by recognizing and celebrating their own national identity, Australians would not feel inferior or overshadowed by their colonial ties to England.
