THE SPIRIT OF GOD AND THE SPIRIT OF AUSTRALIA. Address given by Stuart Piggin at Parliament House Sydney at a lunch held by the Christian Democrats, 10 June 1998
Politicians are like Christians -they are both reviled more than they are revered. Christian politicians must therefore be doubly reviled. It’s quite mathematical really. If you are only a Christian, at least some of the Christians like you. But if you are a Christian politician, you must subtract from all those Christians who do like your Christianity, all those who do not like politicians.

He was 88 years old in 1959 and he wrote a pamphlet called The Victory of the Veterans. This was a call to all the old folk, who were bed-ridden such as himself, to pray for God’s blessing on the crusades, for it was in prayer, he said, that the battle would be fought and won. He died just 8 days after the glorious triumph of the Sydney crusade when over 160,000 crowded into the SCG and the showground to hear Billy
