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

    “O, pluck was he to the backbone and clear grit through and through;
    Boasted and bragged like a trooper; but the big words wouldn’t do;
    The boy was dying, sir, dying, as plain as plain could be,
    Worn out by his ride with Morgan up from the Tennessee.”
    —Constance Fenimore Woolson (1840–1894)

    “Your apple face, the simple crèche
    Of your arms, the August smells
    Of your skin. Then I sorted your clothes
    And the loves you had left, Elizabeth,
    Elizabeth, until you were gone.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

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