Famous quotes containing the words passenger and/or stops:
“Every American travelling in England gets his own individual sport out of the toy passenger and freight trains and the tiny locomotives, with their faint, indignant, tiny whistle. Especially in western England one wonders how the business of a nation can possibly be carried on by means so insufficient.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)
“The New England conscience ... does not stop you from doing what you shouldn’t—it just stops you from enjoying it.”
—Cleveland Amory (b. 1917)
