Rapid Express

Famous quotes containing the words rapid and/or express:

“Missionaries, whether of philosophy or religion, rarely make rapid way, unless their preachings fall in with the prepossessions of the multitude of shallow thinkers, or can be made to serve as a stalking-horse for the promotion of the practical aims of the still larger multitude, who do not profess to think much, but are quite certain they want a great deal.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

“He’s like an express train running through a tunnel—one shriek, sparks, smoke and gone.”
