Goods Train

Famous quotes containing the words goods and/or train:

    By right or wrong,
    Lands and goods go to the strong.
    Property will brutely draw
    Still to the proprietor;
    Silver to silver creep and wind,
    And kind to kind.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    We teach boys to be such men as we are. We do not teach them to aspire to be all they can. We do not give them a training as if we believed in their noble nature. We scarce educate their bodies. We do not train the eye and the hand. We exercise their understandings to the apprehension and comparison of some facts, to a skill in numbers, in words; we aim to make accountants, attorneys, engineers; but not to make able, earnest, great- hearted men.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
