The Brolga quotes from The Silver Brumby

Brolga

Bushfire?

Brolga

That's the second time you disobeyed me, Currawong. I said no drink.

Thowra

Arrow! [neighs] Where are the colts you'll let them freedom!

Oh no.

Brolga

Thowra.

Arrow

The Brolga! Oh no!

Arrow

He's not my leader!

Pussy, puss, puss.

Brolga

Louder!

Pussy, puss, puss!

[in Mopoke's body] Oh mighty Brolga, Thowra's arrived with a cranky old Wombat.

Brolga

What? How many times have I told you, Mopoke. I'm not interested in.

[in Mopoke's body] It's me, sire, Currawong.

Brolga

Welcome back, Arrow.

Arrow

Eh?

Brolga

Welcome back to the High Country.

Arrow

Why thanks, Brolga, is nice to be back. I think.

Brolga

So here we have it. A smart alec who thought he could impress my daughter with deeds of daring eh. But ended up needing saving himself.

Listen, Thowra, it was going well until that stupid Arrow…

Brolga

Thowra! [roars] How dare you insult me by confusing the mighty Brolga with that puny weakling.

Oh all right, Brolga. I don't know who's who around here but Boon Boon and a few others seem to be pretty impressed with Thowra whoever he is.

Brolga

What? Get out of the High Country while you're still able stranger. And that's my advice to you.

Oh yeah well I'm known as the Prince of the West a born leader I wouldn't mind taking over here myself.

Brolga

All right, Thowra. You win. Get it over with. One push and I'm out of your life forever.

Thowra

I Thowra, and now king of the cascade brumbies. I promise to rule with the same justice and wisdom. As did my father, the great Yarraman. I do further decree that the Brolga's life be spared, but he is to be banished from the high country forever. He may seek new pastures but is never to return to my kingdom again.

Brolga

I accept your conditions, Thowra. But for Aranda's sake more so than my own. I acknowledge Thowra as the new king of the cascade brumbies.

Arrow

Oh what!

Hooray!

Anything I can do for you mighty Thowra. I can help out in lots of ways keeping an eye on troublemakers let you in on the latest gossip all that kind of thing. [laughs]
