Freight Train

Famous quotes containing the words freight train, freight and/or train:

    People who make puns are like wanton boys that put coppers on the railroad tracks. They amuse themselves and other children, but their little trick may upset a freight train of conversation for the sake of a battered witticism.
    Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)

    Admire a small ship, but put your freight in a large one; for the larger the load, the greater will be the profit upon profit.
    Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)

    My heart is warm with the friends I make,
    And better friends I’ll not be knowing,
    Yet there isn’t a train I wouldn’t take,
    No matter where it’s going.
    Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
