Sound Circus

Famous quotes containing the words sound and/or circus:

“Wild as it was, it was hard for me to get rid of the associations of the settlements. Any steady and monotonous sound, to which I did not distinctly attend, passed for a sound of human industry.... Our minds anywhere, when left to themselves, are always thus busily drawing conclusions from false premises.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

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