Famous quotes containing the words freight and/or units:
“These have been wonderful years. How many happy, happy times we have traveled about together!

The work was sometimes hard and discouraging but those were happy and useful years.”
—Susan B. Anthony (18201906)
“Even in harmonious families there is this double life: the group life, which is the one we can observe in our neighbours household, and, underneath, anothersecret and passionate and intensewhich is the real life that stamps the faces and gives character to the voices of our friends. Always in his mind each member of these social units is escaping, running away, trying to break the net which circumstances and his own affections have woven about him.”
