I've listened to Kevin Rudd talk more than normal lately. I've realised that every time I hear him talk I get worried that he's about to cry. Do you know that smooth, deliberate tone that people get in uni tutorial debates just before they run out of the room crying? That is Kevin Rudd and he sounds like that all the time.
I Like Dame Edna’s observation. Would you trust your country to a dentist. He does look like a dentist.

I was talking to someone last night who has to do her PhD presentation on tuesday. she thinks that thing in people’s voices might be the difference between people who write their presentations up and read them dispassionately, and people who say them straight with fear and conviction.

Yes. It’s isn’t the overtly nervous people. It’s the people who are so scared of breaking down and crying they will do anything to look like they aren’t about to.
