Grand Falls Station

Famous quotes containing the words grand, falls and/or station:

    One would like to be grand and heroic, if one could; but if not, why try at all? One wants to be very something, very great, very heroic; or if not that, then at least very stylish and very fashionable. It is this everlasting mediocrity that bores me.
    Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)

    Ah, it is sweet on the hills,
    to dance in sacred faun-pelt,
    to dance until one falls faint,
    to beat the sacred dance-beat
    until one drops down
    worn out.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Say first, of God above, or Man below,
    What can we reason, but from what we know?
    Of Man what see we, but his station here,
    From which to reason, or to which refer?
    Thro’ worlds unnumber’d tho’ the God be known,
    ‘Tis ours to trace him only in our own.

    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
