Roads Bridge Tunnel

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

    They’re busy making bigger roads,
    and better roads and more,
    so that people can discover
    even faster than before
    that everything is everywhere alike.
    Piet Hein (b. 1905)

    A circle swoop, and a quick parabola under the bridge arches
    Where light pushes through;
    A sudden turning upon itself of a thing in the air.
    A dip to the water.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    The only way to find out anything about what kinds of lives people led in any given period is to tunnel into their records and to let them speak for themselves.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
