Famous quotes containing the words preserved, pittsburgh and/or locomotives:
“But at my back I always hear
Time’s winged chariot hurrying near;
And yonder all before us lie
Deserts of vast eternity.
Thy beauty shall no more be found,
Nor, in thy marble vault, shall sound
My echoing song: then worms shall try

The grave’s a fine and private place,
But none, I think, do there embrace.”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
