Lift Carriage

Famous quotes containing the words lift and/or carriage:

    For there is no friend like a sister
    In calm or stormy weather;
    To cheer one on the tedious way,
    To fetch one if one goes astray,
    To lift one if one totters down,
    To strengthen whilst one stands.
    Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
