Capacity Light Rail

Famous quotes containing the words capacity, light and/or rail:

    Has the art of politics no apparent utility? Does it appear to be unqualifiedly ratty, raffish, sordid, obscene, and low down, and its salient virtuosi a gang of unmitigated scoundrels? Then let us not forget its high capacity to soothe and tickle the midriff, its incomparable services as a maker of entertainment.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    And I live on, but in grief and self-contempt,
    Left here without the light I loved so much,
    In a great tempest and with shrouds unkempt.
    Petrarch (1304–1374)

    Old man, it’s four flights up and for what?
    Your room is hardly any bigger than your bed.
    Puffing as you climb, you are a brown woodcut
    stooped over the thin rail and the wornout tread.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
