Famous Louise Milligan Quotes

“Ballarat survivor Andrew Collins, watching in the room in Rome, said the first word that came into his mind was 'empathy'. 'To me it showed that he [Cardinal George Pell, giving evidence before the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse] struggled to show any,' Collins says. 'We didn't see it as a blunder, as he thinks carefully before he speaks and is very intelligent and articulate. This is just how his mind works. If it's not about him, involving him or of benefit to him, then it hardly registers.”

“People would think that clergy would plead guilty and would do all they could to minimise the stress and pain for the victim. But the Church will hire the best lawyers, barristers and even QCs to defend the abusers ... The victims are cross-examined as if they are on trial. The victims have to recount every detail of the abuse, and then are called liars.' (Sexual Abuse survivor Andrew Collins quoted on p.364)”
