Branch Railroad Company

Famous quotes containing the words branch, railroad and/or company:

    True variety is in that plenitude of real and unexpected elements, in the branch charged with blue flowers thrusting itself, against all expectations, from the springtime hedge which seems already too full, while the purely formal imitation of variety ... is but void and uniformity, that is, that which is most opposed to variety....
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

    This I saw when waking late,
    Going by at a railroad rate,
    Looking through wreaths of engine smoke
    Far into the lives of other folk.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Come, boys, I know there’s kindly hearts among so good a
    crowd—
    To be in such good company would make a deacon proud.
    Hugh Antoine D’Arcy (1843–1925)
