Built West

Famous quotes containing the words built and/or west:

    Once I built a railroad, made it run,
    Made it race against time ...
    Now it’s done,
    Buddy, can you spare a dime?

    In their sympathies, children feel nearer animals than adults. They frolic with animals, caress them, share with them feelings neither has words for. Have they ever stroked any adult with the love they bestow on a cat? Hugged any grownup with the ecstasy they feel when clasping a puppy?
    —Jessamyn West (1907–1984)
