Throughout my seven decades in Australian media, one observation stands above all else: the power of the voice.

From the voices that echoed long before my time to those that resonate today, I have brought together Australiaâs most inspirational words and speeches.

From the first recorded impressions by early explorers to eyewitness accounts that marked the birth of the Anzacs. From the raw imagery of our original bush poets to the defining words of prime ministers, past and present.

These orations capture the raw spirit of a land forged in rebellion and resilience: Peter Lalor's call for miners' rights, Ned Kelly's unrepentant final stand, and Gough Whitlam's foreboding challenge to the Governor-General, Sir John Kerr.
