[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

"Then there were billards; cards, too; but no dice, save in the clubs no man of honor plays-boats when 'twas water, skating when 'twas ice, and the hard frost destroy'd the scenting days, and angling too, that solitary vice, whatever Izaac Walton sings or says; the quaint old cruel coxcomb in his gellet, should have a hook, and a small trout to pull it."

Lord Byron
