After School
After several years, already convinced that he had the skill to become a creative writer, he decided that he should travel to the U.K. and Europe, in oder to gain experience of the world and, hopefully, determine what kind of writing to which he would devote his energies.
In order to acquire sufficient funds to fund his explorations, he moved from Melbourne to Portland towards the end of 1961, and worked for his parents' at Mac's Hotel, in Bentinck Street, Portland.

Famous quotes containing the word school:
“Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow,
And every where that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go;
He followed her to school one day—
That was against the rule,
It made the children laugh and play,
To see a lamb at school.”
—Sarah Josepha Buell Hale (1788–1879)
“Bodily offspring I do not leave, but mental offspring I do. Well, my books do not have to be sent to school and college, and then insist on going into the church, or take to drinking, or marry their mother’s maid.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
