Famous quotes containing the words high, grass and/or circus:

    Were I as base as is the lowly plain,
    And you, my Love, as high as heaven above,
    Yet should the thoughts of me, your humble swain,
    Ascend to heaven in honour of my love.
    Joshua Sylvester (1561–1618)

    All the heavy days are over;
    Leave the body’s coloured pride
    Underneath the grass and clover,
    With the feet laid side by side.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

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