Additional quotes by Victor Daley

A Book of Sermons underneath the Bough,
A Bag of Buns, some ginger-ale, and Thou Preaching beside me in the wilderness —
The wilderness were Paradise enow!

The parson said: "Your sinful Past Will make for you a fiery rod."
I smiled, and thought upon the vast Amused indifference of God.

I do not care for men To point with pride at me;
A model citizen I do not wish to be.
