Wylie told the crowd on Tuesday he was lucky to have chaired the two great meeting places in town, Melbourne Cricket Ground and the library, both places with âa sense that no one is more important than anybody else and everyone belongs. Both these places have a lot in common, they share a great sense of belonging and they share a great sense of quality.â
But with one significant difference.
âIt is a bit like the difference between a Big Mac and a slow-cooked lamb. The MCG is like a juicy Big Mac, itâs instant gratification, itâs whoâs going to win in the next three hours. Whereas the library, as Paul Keating said, will do you slowly, itâs a delicious slow-cooked dish.â
