Famous quotes containing the words town, railway and/or station:

    “Every town has an Elm Street.”
    —Michael Deluca, U.S. screenwriter, and Rachel Talalay. Freddy Krueger (Robert Englund)

    “Her personality had an architectonic quality; I think of her when I see some of the great London railway termini, especially St. Pancras, with its soot and turrets, and she overshadowed her own daughters, whom she did not understand—my mother, who liked things to be nice; my dotty aunt. But my mother had not the strength to put even some physical distance between them, let alone keep the old monster at emotional arm’s length.”
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    “...I believe it is now the duty of the slaves of the South to rebuke their masters for their robbery, oppression and crime.... No station or character can destroy individual responsibility, in the matter of reproving sin.”
    —Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)
