Railroad Tunnel

Famous quotes containing the words railroad and/or tunnel:

    People that 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)

    You may raise enough money to tunnel a mountain, but you cannot raise money enough to hire a man who is minding his own business.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
