“Mali
has a smug arrogance similar to Dennis Miller’s, but his loquacious logic
reveals Miller for the intellectual flyweight he is.”

“… Taylor Mali … is
a man of unique properties. He is tagged as a performance poet, but his
performances, rather than being frontal assaults, are leavened by charm and wit
and … survive happily on the page.”
