Famous quotes containing the words cable and/or street:

    To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.
    Douglass Cross (b. 1920)

    I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning
    Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to Rochefoucauld,
    If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
    And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
