* Lady Sarah Ashley (Nicole Kidman) undertakes a journey when cattle barons plot to steal her land she finds the challenge of working alongside the drover hugh jackman.

*Rewarding- in that whilst drover and sarah ashley travel the unforgiving lands of the continent, they befriend a young Aboriginal child and find love/peace with each other.

* Challenging- the duo face many hardships along their path such as the Japanese bombing Darwin, engulfing their world in chaos and war, whilst they try to help save the aboriginal people from having their children given away during the time of the stolen generation/ white australia policy.

*betwen drover and ashley:

Let's go home.
There's no place like it.


* Margarri-
If you've got no love in your heart, you've got nothing... No dreaming, not story, nothing.


*Ashley-
A woman? I suppose you think I should be back in Darwin, at the church fête or a lady's whatever you call it. Well I will have you know, I am as capable as any man.

There was more, these were the ones that I mostly used and discussed about in class.

Yes, studied Australia for the belonging AOS module as our Advanced class had the day off to go view it with our teacher. Don't really know of any sites, however try a search like Australia Baz lurhman journey quotes and just keep refining it until you find something suitable.

Unfortunately at the moment I can't really think of a 3rd. I would agree that journeys can be a process a long and tedious one that a person can undertake for many years.
