Rail Transit System

Famous quotes containing the words rail, transit and/or system:

    “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)

    “My esoteric doctrine, is that if you entertain any doubt, it is safest to take the unpopular side in the first instance. Transit from the unpopular, is easy ... but from the popular to the unpopular is so steep and rugged that it is impossible to maintain it.”
    —William Lamb Melbourne, 2nd Viscount (1779–1848)

    “Each generation’s job is to question what parents accept on faith, to explore possibilities, and adapt the last generation’s system of values for a new age.”
    —Frank Pittman (20th century)
