Moon Troupe

Famous quotes containing the words moon and/or troupe:

    There are two kinds of adventurers: those who go truly hoping to find adventure and those who go secretly hoping they won’t.
    —William Least Heat Moon [William Trogdon] (b. 1939)

    Social and scientific progress are assured, sir, once our great system of postpossession payments is in operation, not the installment plan, no sir, but a system of small postpossession payments that clinch the investment. No possible rational human wish unfulfilled. A man with a salary of fifty dollars a week can start payments on a Rolls-Royce, the Waldorf-Astoria, or a troupe of trained seals if he so desires.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
