Helen Clark quote: "I think that generally New Zealand is respected for the..."
I think that generally New Zealand is respected for the positions it takes because it thinks them through. Helen Clark
I've been round Japan, Hong Kong, Korea, and China in the last few months and the message that I've been taking is that New Zealand is building an up market dynamic into a connected economy. And that we are not the old-fashioned, ship mutton kind of product the people associate their export in work. Helen Clark
In terms of having views and being prepared to express them, yes, I think New Zealand's had a leadership role in a lot of things. Helen Clark
It's fair to say that, for much of my lifetime, New Zealand certainly was a property-owning democracy and working people, ordinary people, had assets. Helen Clark
I think it's inevitable that New Zealand will become a republic and that would reflect the reality that New Zealand is a totally sovereign-independent 21st century nation 12,000 miles from the United Kingdom. Helen Clark

The Prime Minister is head of team but its not a one woman act. aI've been called all those things. Intellectual, sharp-tongued, all true. But what New Zealander is like is to know that someone is in charge and in the end the buck stops with the Prime Minister. Helen Clark
I don't know that you're ever going to persuade New Zealanders that they're not going to own their own homes and I'm not going to try. Helen Clark
New Zealand's been pretty quiet on human rights issues, which we will be taking rather more interest in, and in international labor issues. Helen Clark
Fortunately New Zealand doesn't have land borders so we are able to be somewhat more rigorous on who gets in and out of our country than perhaps some people. Helen Clark
In the end, there will always be a fundamental difference of perspective between New Zealand and Australia on defense, whoever is in government. Helen Clark
Well, there have been periods in the past when prime ministers of Australia and New Zealand were at each others' throats publicly and frequently. That's not productive at all. Helen Clark
As New Zealanders, we've been in on the United Nations from the very beginning, played a role in the drafting of the charter - it means a lot to us that those processes are followed. Helen Clark
Helen Clark quote: "Well of course New Zealand isn't anti-American."
Well of course New Zealand isn't anti-American. Helen Clark
