"We are all visitors to this time, this place. We are just passing through." Oh yeah, thanks for the reminder. It's easy to forget for some reason, but no words ever carried more truth. Thanks for the great video!

[@melodyjordan6052]

My father used to say this all the time when I was worried about something. Mel, we are just passing through here, do not sweat the small stuff. The saying still gets me through a rough time to this day.

[@mjnyc8655]

I suspect much if not most of these are pre-Australian.

[@fangnhoon]

[@KristiContemplates]

From all the lands of Earth we come. I love love love that these can be traced back to so many cultures, including our many many many enduring Indigenous peoples and cultures 🤗🐨🐫👍🏿

[@uptonsavoie]

Most of them come from England, like many Australians.

[@ianjackson3346]

Pretty sure some of these were in existence before Australia

Great quotes

[@georgemoore7186]

That one about before you criticise someone you should walk a mile in their shoes, that way by the time you criticise them, you are a mile away and have their shoes....is pure Australian humour, that is something an Aussie would say

[@jonathanmowat8576]

Billy Connolly, came out with that one years ago. It's not an Australian saying! 🤣🤣🤣

These sayings come from the British isles. My mom and dad said all these saying and they lived in America but their roots were from Ireland, Wales, and Scotland.

Australia - land of tomorrow ? 🤔 Maybe dystopia of tomorrow

[@KristiContemplates]

🤣🤣🤣 Apparently we're going to be building 'The Big Thumb-Drive'. A phuqin huge storage drive device, or "Earth's black box", that's going to record the demise of current civilization, for the far distant future when technological civilizations develop again. I call it 'The Big Thumb-Drive' because "The Big Black Box" is just going to cause too many people to die from laughing so phuqin hard 🤣🤣🤣👍🏿🐨🦘

Is this how Sheila came to be used?

[@eddieboggs8306]

Not telling her that their was a 50 percent off sale at the mall.

[@georgemoore7186]

Another one he got wrong, the "calm" comes before the storm is how the saying goes

[@lead5s]

why did that have a pic of tom oar from mountain men on the thumbnail? he aint a aussie, hes american

[@terrywade3696]

Why are you using a picture of Tom Oar, a reality star from Mountain Men television series, in your cover photo for this topic? Tom Oar is an American trapper in Montana and has nothing to do with Australia.

[@georgemoore7186]

he got one wrong, "God Helps those who help themselves" that has been around since Adam wore short pants, what makes it Australian is the next sentence, i.e. God helps those who help themselves...and Australians ad....and Christ help those that can't (help themselves that is)

[@rosanagle4232]

Hm. Australian wisdom? I'm American, and I'm familiar with almost all of these sayings. I was always told that these are English ideas, brought over by the Pilgrims, and whatnot. "The family that prays together stays together", for example. Odd.

Shame the Australian government doesn't have wisdom

[@carpathianken]

They kind of do have wisdom though.What other profession could they get paid over $400k a year for doing nothing other than telling lies?

[@tahu1349]

@@carpathianken generally that's associated with criminal behavior. The Australian government has been bought by the corporations, so afraid democracy is dead there

[@carpathianken]

@@tahu1349 Absolutely It's criminal behaviour by our standards.Your comment reminded me of what China's doing buying up our dairy farms & real estate & I'll be labelled a racist for saying this but because they're communist & our current government is so willing to roll over to China & sell us out in the short term they turn a blind eye.

[@tahu1349]

@@carpathianken what makes you think they haven't bought your government?

[@carpathianken]

@@tahu1349 Sadly,I think our government is yielding to the Chinese for short-term financial gain. All those young men that sacrificed their lives to defeat communism must be rolling around in their graves when they see the Chinese weaselling it's way in.

What australian wisdom lol. Copied

[@phililpb]

British wisdom?

[@richardcarter5314]

Not Australian at all, simply copied from elsewhere. True Australians don't have wise sayings!! Also, the icon advertising is wearing a hat with a hatband of an American Indian!!.

[@brotheramartey777]

At 1:13, you're dead wrong! Why would God help those who can help themselves? They don't need God then? This is a stupid aphorism!

[@thomasboese3793]

Perhaps you could educate us, and show us the one person who sat on their rear, did nothing and God came along and helped them... The Universe always helps those who work at helping themselves. If that statement wasn't true, then every poor person would find hundreds of millions of dollars under their bed daily...
