“The way to go to the circus, however, is with someone who has seen perhaps one theatrical performance before in his life and that in the High School hall....

—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“To that high Capital, where kingly Death
Keeps his pale court in beauty and decay,
He came.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
