Famous quotes containing the words steam and/or engine:

    A steam ran small and terrible and shrill;
    it was so still;
    the stream ran from the oak-copse
    and returned and ran
    back into shadow.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    The will is never free—it is always attached to an object, a purpose. It is simply the engine in the car—it can’t steer.
    Joyce Cary (1888–1957)
