Trains Run

Famous quotes containing the words trains run, trains and/or run:

    In this country, you never pull the emergency brake, even when there is an emergency. It is imperative that the trains run on schedule.
    Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)

    The complaint ... about modern steel furniture, modern glass houses, modern red bars and modern streamlined trains and cars is that all these objets modernes, while adequate and amusing in themselves, tend to make the people who use them look dated. It is an honest criticism. The human race has done nothing much about changing its own appearance to conform to the form and texture of its appurtenances.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)

    I wander on, and wave my hands,
    And sing, and shake my heavy locks.
    The grey wolf knows me; by one ear
    I lead along the woodland deer;
    The hares run by me growing bold.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
