Here are some of the plaques marking the Writers Walk along Sydney, Australia’s Circular Quay. The last three were taken at night with a flash and appear to be a little different in colour. Those colours are actually more accurate. These are just sixteen of the two dozen or so writers with plaques. The others were writers I am not familiar with. I was not familiar with Oodgeroo Noonuccal below, but I really liked the quote. The others below I had heard of or heard of some of their works, though I have not read all of their works, if any. I have added the quotes below the picture if the picture is smudged or partly illegible.

“Mankind was destined to live on the edge of perpetual disaster. We are mankind because we survive. We do it in a half-assed way, but we do it.”

The Domain in the quote is the 34 hectare park that wraps around the bay.
