While addressing the Australian Parliament, the leaders delivered old Chinese proverbs:

大海之阔，非一流之归也: The ocean is vast because it admits numerous rivers.

国虽大，好战必亡: A warlike state, however big it may be, will eventually fall.

Xi Jinping, president

有朋自远方来，不亦乐乎: It is a joy to have friends come from afar.

独行快，众行远: If you want to walk fast, walk alone, but if you want to walk far, walk together.

Tony Abbott, Australian prime minister

好邻居金不换: A good neighbor is not to be traded for gold.

Bill Shorten, Australian opposition leader
