Body Platform

Famous quotes containing the words body and/or platform:

    I thought no more was needed
    Youth to prolong
    Than dumb-bell and foil
    To keep the body young.
    O who could have foretold
    That the heart grows old?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I marched in with the men afoot; a gallant show they made as they marched up High Street to the depot. Lucy and Mother Webb remained several hours until we left. I saw them watching me as I stood on the platform at the rear of the last car as long as they could see me. Their eyes swam. I kept my emotion under control enough not to melt into tears.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
