Delivered Tons

Famous quotes containing the words delivered and/or tons:

    Cry pretty, pretty, pretty and you’ll be able
    Very soon not even to cry pretty
    And so be delivered entirely from humanity
    This is prettiest of all, it is very pretty.
    Stevie Smith (1902–1971)

    Coal is a portable climate. It carries the heat of the tropics to Labrador and the polar circle; and it is the means of transporting itself whithersoever it is wanted. Watt and Stephenson whispered in the ear of mankind their secret, that a half-ounce of coal will draw two tons a mile, and coal carries coal, by rail and by boat, to make Canada as warm as Calcutta, and with its comfort brings its industrial power.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
