Lange Quotes
To mark the passing of David Lange, I present some of his best quotes, including the very relevant first one:
“Death is very, very terminal”
“Our military forces are an arm of government, just like the Department of Social Welfare, although probably less able to inflict widespread harm”
Reporter: Does God help you
Lange: He’s not really in the Caucus lately
Reporter: So what will you do with the rest of your life?
Lange: I’m going to be a jockey
Upon seeing a machine at the Levin Horticultural Centre labelled “Media Steriliser” Lange said “Have that sent my office to my office immediately”.
“He wears a tie marked ‘New Zealand’ so that he knows how to get home if he is abroad” on Warren Cooper.
