More quotes by Malcolm Turnbull
I have always been generous because I know that I have done well in life and I believe it is part of my duty to give back. So I am always been philanthropic.
Malcolm Turnbull
Americans understand that they have no stronger ally, no better friend, than Australia.
Malcolm Turnbull
Government will not nominate the former Labor prime minister [Kevin Rudd] to be the UN's next secretary-general.
Malcolm Turnbull
The only reason to be in politics is public service. There's no other reason. Frankly, if that's the best job you can get in terms of money, that's too bad, you know. Because frankly, it's not well paid, everyone knows that. So for most people it's a big sacrifice.
Malcolm Turnbull
We will certainly have to rethink the way in which we design and protect places where large numbers of Australians and indeed this will happen around the world.
Malcolm Turnbull
While our energy efficiency is improving, there is a very high correlation, almost near perfect correlation, between GDP growth, and energy usage.
Malcolm Turnbull
There is a tendency to try to dumb everything down and turn everything into a one-paragraph press release or even less, just a slogan.

Mitt Romney speaking to a $50,000-a-plate Republican fundraiser says he doesn't have to worry about the 47 per cent of Americans who don't pay tax. He was not counting on the smart phone recording his speech and then posting it on YouTube.
Malcolm Turnbull
I believe politicians should aim to be accurate and truthful in what they say at all times. You can be truthful and inaccurate but what you shouldn't be doing at any time is saying things that are untrue or making commitments that you have no intention of honouring.
Malcolm Turnbull
You cannot keep on saying oh, you know, talking about disrespecting women as just being politically correct or it's not a big deal or brushing things off. You've got to be aware of it.
Malcolm Turnbull
To the former child migrants, who came to Australia from a home far away, led to believe this land would be a new beginning, when only to find it was not a beginning, but an end, an end of innocence - we apologise and we are sorry. To the mothers who lost the maternal right to love and care for their child - we apologise, and we are sorry.
Malcolm Turnbull
It is unmanly. It is not some expression of macho virtue. It is the absolute antithesis of this. Real men don't bully women and children. Respect for women ... is so important.
Malcolm Turnbull
I love radio - its immediacy and especially its intimacy... it is part of your life, whispering into your ear. You can't see it, but equally importantly it can't see you.
Malcolm Turnbull
What you've got to do is recognize that you don't control everything for a start, you've got to play the cards you're dealt, the hand of cards you're dealt, as best you can, and that's what I always seek to do.
Malcolm Turnbull
Newspapers are busily experimenting with different models. Traditionally, and I suspect in hindsight very mistakenly, online news was free. And once given free access readers felt it was their entitlement.
Malcolm Turnbull
I do not believe we can effectively move Australia to a lower emission economy, which is what we need to do if we're going to make a contribution to a global reduction in greenhouse gases, without putting a price on carbon.
Malcolm Turnbull
I've been around in public life for a long time. I think people know what I stand for. They know that I have strong convictions, committed principles and I'm prepared to stand up for them.
Malcolm Turnbull
I'm sick of the cover-ups, I'm sick of the lies, and so are the bloody veterans, that come out daily of the department's mouth.
Malcolm Turnbull
You've got to remember that it's a two horse race. So when the Government is doing badly the Opposition is doing better and vice versa.
Malcolm Turnbull
People invest in companies in order to get a share of the profit that company will make. If the Government increases its share of the profits, potential profits, at the expense of the owners of the company, the shareholders, then that makes investment in that company less attractive.
