2003, transcript, in Peter McConchie (recorder), Elders: Wisdom from Australia′s Indigenous Leaders, page 18, The learning isn′t written on paper as whitefellas′ knowledge is. We carry it instead in our heads and we′re talking from our hearts, for the land. You fellas, whitefellas, put us in the back all the time, like we′ve got no language for the land. But we′ve got the true story for the land.
