Roads Bridge Tunnel

Famous quotes containing the words roads, bridge and/or tunnel:

    “This, my first [bicycle] had an intrinsic beauty. And it opened for me an era of all but flying, which roads emptily crossing the airy, gold-gorsy Common enhanced. Nothing since has equalled that birdlike freedom.”
    —Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)

    “Poetry is not only dream and vision; it is the skeleton architecture of our lives. It lays the foundations for a future of change, a bridge across our fears of what has never been before.”
    —Audre Lorde (1934–1992)

    “It is the light
    At the end of the tunnel as it might be seen
    By him looking out somberly at the shower,
    The picture of hope a dying man might turn away from,
    Realizing that hope is something else, something concrete
    You can’t have.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
