Seeing the possibilities for a microbrewery in his hometown of Melbourne, Hines contacted Bonighton with a business proposition.

I not only have my own history to worry about
But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“The reverence for the Scriptures is an element of civilization, for thus has the history of the world been preserved, and is preserved.”
