Lynette Curran: Rhoda Wilson
Quotes
-
Phil Henderson : Look, I don't particularly like these assignments - especially when most of the time it's the farmers' own fault.
Rhoda Wilson : Hey, now, come on!
Phil Henderson : Well, look, they run far too many sheep to the acre, they won't use modern methods, they refuse to try communal farming. They're the last of the world's great individualists.
Rhoda Wilson : Can't wait to see you matched against Colonel Emerson.
Phil Henderson : Emerson. I've heard that name before.
Rhoda Wilson : Well, his grandson calls him Squire.
Phil Henderson : Well, that's exactly what I mean! Feudal, old-fashioned, out of touch with the times.
Rhoda Wilson : Just patient. My husband always said, "You can't fight the land. You can't thrash it, knock it down. You have to move with its beat, with its music."
