"You'll basically understand that 'She'll be right' is kind of like its own philosophy about life here (in Australia). It is not an embodiment of the philosophy, it is the philosophy. And if you take the words 'She'll be right' and say them unceasingly to yourself, like a mantra: 'She'll be right; she'll be right; she'll be right' after a while your European obsession with perfectionism and your Germanic obsession with being punctual, and all these kind of fixations, just start to vanish after a while. You'll find they just drop off you and you can go and play your golf and not worry about things, and of course the problem is you'll never be able to go back to Germany, or the States, or Japan, and work there ever again."
