Battle Quote by Soupy Sales

“To perform stand-up comedy in a club, that's the most exciting profession in the world. You're like Spartacus going into battle because every show is a different audience. And you're not hiding behind anything; you're yourself out there and being judged on your own merits.” quote by Soupy Sales — Download Open image
