Running Rails

Famous quotes containing the words running and/or rails:

“‘Tis with my mind
As with the tide swelled up unto his height,
That makes a still-stand, running neither way.”

“You could almost see the brass on her gleaming,
Not quite. The mist was to light what red
Is to fire. And her mainmast tapered to nothing,
Without teetering a millimeter’s measure.
The beads on her rails seemed to grasp at transparence.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
