Travelling Circuses

Famous quotes containing the words travelling and/or circuses:

“But these young scholars, who invade our hills,
Bold as the engineer who fells the wood,
And travelling often in the cut he makes,
Love not the flower they pluck, and know it not
And all their botany is Latin names.
The old men studied magic in the flowers.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Was there a time when dancers with their fiddles
In children’s circuses could stay their troubles?”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
