Famous quotes containing the words big, apple and/or circus:

    “The name of the town isn’t important. It’s the one that’s just twenty-eight minutes from the big city. Twenty-three if you catch the morning express. It’s on a river and it’s got houses and stores and churches. And a main street. Nothing fancy like Broadway or Market, just plain Broadway. Drug, dry good, shoes. Those horrible little chain stores that breed like rabbits.”
    —Joseph L. Mankiewicz (1909–1993)

    “An apple cleft in two is not more twin
    Than these two creatures.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Democracy is the art and science of running the circus from the monkey-cage.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
