Famous quotes containing the words soul and/or circus:

    Seraphs and saints with one great voice
    Welcomed that soul that knew not fear.
    Amazed to find it could rejoice,
    Hell raised a hoarse, half-human cheer.
    John Davidson (1857–1909)

    It beats sitting around with my butt in a sling.
    Antoinette Cancello, U.S. circus aerialist. As quoted in WomenSports magazine, p. 35 (January 1976)
