Famous quotes containing the words ford and/or platform:

    “Charging a man with murder in this place was like handing out speeding tickets at the Indy 500.”
    —John Milius, U.S. screenwriter, Francis Ford Coppola (b. 1939)

    “I marched in with the men afoot; a gallant show they made as they marched up High Street to the depot. Lucy and Mother Webb remained several hours until we left. I saw them watching me as I stood on the platform at the rear of the last car as long as they could see me. Their eyes swam. I kept my emotion under control enough not to melt into tears.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
