Railways Built

Famous quotes containing the words railways and/or built:

    There is nothing in machinery, there is nothing in embankments and railways and iron bridges and engineering devices to oblige them to be ugly. Ugliness is the measure of imperfection.
    —H.G. (Herbert George)

    This is something that I cannot get over—that a whole line could be written by half a man, that a work could be built on the quicksand of a character.
