The Carnival dancers are such a vital part of any carnival, whether it's in Rio, Mardi Gras or even Notting Hill Carnival in my home town of London. Once you see them, you know it's time to party.

Jax Jones

Paying to teach in the trenches was like putting my face through a cutout hole at a carnival while a quarterback threw pies at me. At least with a carnival, I'd see it coming.

Erin Gruwell

On Saturday night, I would see men lusting after half-naked girls dancing at the carnival, and on Sunday morning when I was playing organ for tent-show evangelists at the other end of the carnival lot, I would see these same men sitting in the pews with their wives and children, asking God to forgive them and purge them of carnal desires. And the next Saturday they'd be back at the carnival or some other place of indulgence. I knew then that the Christian church thrives on hypocrisy, and that man's carnal nature will out no matter how much it is purged or scoured by any white-light religion.

Anton Szandor LaVey

After the Dance was my first attempt at nonfiction. I'd never really participated in carnival, and I really wanted to go. It sounded like a wonderfully fun thing to do. And I wanted to write something happy about Haiti, something celebratory. And going to carnival gave me a chance to do that, because it is one of the instances in Haiti when people shed their class separation and come together.

Kami Garcia

Crewing and being on film sets is kind of like being in the carnival, with carnie folks.

Ben Mendelsohn

[Carnival Ride] is part of a line from my favorite song on the album, "Wheel of the World." It sums up everything that's happened to me. It's nuts to think of where I was a couple of years ago.

Carrie Underwood

Despite having lived in London for most of my life - and being a huge fan of dancing and drinking in the street - I've never been to Notting Hill carnival.

Lolly Adefope

Drugs are a carnival in hell.

Edith Piaf

Marriage isn't a carnival ride.

Aisha Tyler

It's a party that's being organized; it's not a protest. The carnival is not like it was a long time ago. Before it was do as you like, take to the streets.

Michel Martelly

I stumble through a carnival of horrors

Anne Rice

That's exactly what Octomom is: a carnival attraction.

Nadya Suleman

I don't eat meat, I am not a carnival.

Melanie

When I heard that 'Dracula' was being made into a series by NBC and Carnival, I couldn't resist. I knew they would do something interesting with it. A period drama with a supernatural twist seemed like a whole lot of fun.

Jessica De Gouw

Show business is and has always been a depraved carnival.

David Mamet
