It wasn't on my agenda, but the thing about getting important awards is it makes the adventure of your career have a little more possibility. I think just what's happened so far is already making the opportunities more interesting, even though I'm at the twilight of my career of like 48 years.
Jackie Weaver, Australian Actress (1947-  )
Who of us knows or can by possibility arrive at a knowledge of the laws that govern our property and lives?
