“There are about 100 Aboriginal communities in Australia, and I'm tryin...” — Evonne Goolagong Cawley Quote

There are about 100 Aboriginal communities in Australia, and I'm trying to visit as many as possible to learn as much as I can.

I certainly had a lot of fun during my career playing tennis, doing the thing I wanted to do and to do it well.

I remember I hadn't bought anything for my Mum for Christmas and I actually won an iron, so I was excited that I could take that home for her.

I used to say during my career that the biggest gift was having my children.

I'm just tired of having to say 'cheese' all the time for the press.

'Gods of Wheat Street' has been described as an Aboriginal 'Neighbours' or 'Home and Away.' But on set, we were calling it 'Black to the Rafters.'

I've got tonnes of aboriginal and Native American art, but I'd like even more.

To continue my efforts as a leader for my people and to follow my family's legacy of providing legitimate opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people through my sport of basketball is the true outcome of my personal success and accomplishments.

One of my earliest memories is being backstage at 'Bran Nue Dae' in Darwin when I was about eight. It's such a fun, happy show and a real celebration of being Aboriginal... it felt really great and achievable as a career. It all felt normal.
