More quotes by Kevin Rudd
The Government's mission is to build a strong and fair Australia capable of meeting the new challenges of the 21st century.
Kevin Rudd
Senator Obama's message of hope is not just for America's future, it is also a message of hope for the world as well. A world which is now in many respects fearful for its future.
Kevin Rudd
It is unlikely that you'll have anything emerge from MEF (Major Economies Forum) by way of detailed programmatic specificity.
Kevin Rudd
I am deeply committed to the cause of Indigenous Australians, and not just because of the Apology, but the big challenges which lie ahead in closing the gap.
Kevin Rudd
Having a go at kids with a terminal illness is really beyond the pale, absolutely beyond the pale.
Kevin Rudd
As you know, the Australian Labour Party is committed to turning the country into a republic. We've not stipulated a timeline for doing that. We are sensitive to the other priorities we've got as a nation and in the world, but in time the country will head in that direction.
Kevin Rudd
The Apology opened the opportunity for a new relationship based on mutual respect and mutual responsibility between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australia. Because without mutual respect and mutual responsibility, the truth is we can achieve very little.
Kevin Rudd
We are moving toward recognition of the first Australians in the Australian constitution.
Kevin Rudd
Education is both a tool of social justice as well as a fundamental driver of economic development.

Kevin Rudd
It is a high honour to be elected Prime Minister of Australia.
Kevin Rudd
The time has now come for the nation to turn a new page in Australia's history by righting the wrongs of the past and so moving forward with confidence to the future. We apologise for the laws and policies of successive parliaments and governments that have inflicted profound grief, suffering and loss on these our fellow Australians.
Kevin Rudd
I was elected by the Australian people to bring back a fair go for all Australians. I have given my absolute best to do that.
Kevin Rudd
By 2050, the Australian population is expected to grow from 22 million to 36 million. That increase alone will put huge pressure on our towns and our cities. We will need more homes, more roads, more rail lines, more hospitals, more schools, just to accommodate so many Australians.
Kevin Rudd
I deeply believe that if the Australian Labor Party, a party of which I have been a proud member for more than 30 years, is to have the best future for our nation, then it must change fundamentally its culture and to end the power of faceless men. Australia must be governed by the people, not by the factions.
Kevin Rudd
If Australia wants an effective United Nations, we have to be comprehensively, not marginally, engaged.
Kevin Rudd
I do not know whether I will be in this place for a short or a long time. That is for others to decide. But what I do know is that I have no intention of being here for the sake of just being here. Together with my colleagues it is my intention to make a difference .
