Fast Rail

Famous quotes containing the words fast and/or rail:

“Endlessly, time-honoured irritant,
A bubble is restively forming at your tip.
Burst it as fast as we can
It will grow again, until we begin dying.”

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.”
