Additional quotes by Victor Daley

Must we all in grovel wallow Like to bisons in a bog —
Must we call him an Apollo If he is not quite a hog?

O reader, deem me not a sham,
For I in purple earnest am!

If beings of Mythology Could live at my commands I'd choose to be, Who had a hundred hands:
And every hand of mine
Would hold a pint of wine.
