Famous quotes containing the words significant and/or cars:

    What seems to us serious, significant and important will, in future times, be forgotten or won’t seem important at all.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    Cuchulain stirred,
    Stared on the horses of the sea, and heard
    The cars of battle and his own name cried;
    And fought with the invulnerable tide.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
