"I feel like we are at war. I guess we are, in a way. At war with deadly pathogens that we cannot see, smell or hear." ~Vanessa W., Bowral NSW, June 2020
"Rain (also) means the lands and dams can gain a rest from the overpowering drought we’re experiencing, or heal from the damage caused by previous bushfires. The plants and animals finally get a drink after weeks on end of using whatever is left on the ground, allowing them to continue a healthy lifestyle." ~Anon, The Diary Files, SL-NSW, August 7, 2020
"Stormy weather is calming to the soul. The subtle patter of the rain, the intoxicating scent of petrichor, the small chill to the howling wind. Every element that adds towards rain makes me long for a permanent winter." ~Anon, extracted from THE DIARY FILES, State Library of New South Wales, August 7, 2020
"… the function and purpose of a library has changed throughout the history of humanity to meet the needs and requirement of the people at time." ~Kylie Wardell, QLD, excerpted from The Diary Files
