About Ned Kelly

Edward "Ned" Kelly (c. January 1855 - 11 November 1880) was Australian bushranger and outlaw who robbed banks and killed three policemen. He and his gang members are noted for wearing suits of bulletproof amour during a shootout with the police. In 1880, after trying and failing to wreck a police train and kill those onboard, he was captured and hanged at the Melbourne Gaol. One of Australia's best known historical figures, Kelly is championed by some as a folk hero and reviled by others as a bloodthirsty murderer.

Additional quotes by Ned Kelly

People who live in large towns have no idea of the tyrannical conduct of the police in country places far removed from court; they have no idea of the harsh and overbearing manner in which they execute their duty, or how they neglect their duty and abuse their powers.

Had I robbed, plundered, ravished and murdered everything I met my character could not be painted blacker than it as present, thank God my conscience is as clear as the snow in Peru.

The country belongs to us; we can go anywhere we like.
