Running Rails

Famous quotes containing the words running and/or rails:

“I must down to the seas again for the call of the running tide Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied.”

“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)
