It is tragic that we have lost one of our nation's finest actors in the prime of his life. Heath Ledger's diverse and challenging roles will be remembered as some of the great performances by an Australian actor.

More quotes by Kevin Rudd
A continuing narrative throughout Australia's history that says it is better to build up than to tear down - this is the continuing mission of Labor.
Kevin Rudd
Building a new Health and Hospitals Network is fundamental to building a stronger and fairer Australia.
Kevin Rudd
People are happiest when they are giving, they are saddest when they are just taking. And that is the core message of community.
Kevin Rudd
We are moving toward recognition of the first Australians in the Australian constitution.
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
I conclude where I began, I was elected by the people of Australia to do a job. I was not elected by the factional leaders of Australia, of the Australian Labor Party to do a job - though they may be seeking to do a job on me, that's a separate matter. The challenge therefore is to honour the mandate given to me by the Australian people.
Kevin Rudd
It is a high honour to be elected Prime Minister of Australia.
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
I just don't really get into all that sort of personal negative stuff. My job is to outline some positive plans for the country's future and perhaps Mr. Howard and the Government don't like the fact that I'm putting out some positive alternatives. What's their preference.. for me to be a negative carping opposition leader?
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
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
Having a go at kids with a terminal illness is really beyond the pale, absolutely beyond the pale.
Kevin Rudd
We have a prime minister, I'm the foreign minister, I'm trying to get on with the job of doing Australia's foreign policy.
Kevin Rudd
For Australians, climate change is no longer a distant threat. Our rivers are dying, bush fires are more ferocious and more frequent and our natural wonders - the Great Barrier Reef, Kakadu, our rainforests - are now at risk.
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
My name is Kevin, I'm from Queensland, and I'm here to help.
Kevin Rudd
We are so fortunate, as Australians, to have among us the oldest continuing cultures in human history. Cultures that link our nation with deepest antiquity. We have Aboriginal rock art in the Kimberley that is as ancient as the great Palaeolithic cave paintings at Altamira and Lascaux in Europe.
Kevin Rudd
By way of personal instinct, I have an inherent distaste for grandiose rhetorical statements, which don't have any substantive dimension to them
Kevin Rudd
Of course I base all my election promises and policies on opinion polls
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
