Famous quotes containing the words city and/or railroad:
“A city on whom plenty held full hand,
For riches strewed herself even in her streets;
Whose towers bore heads so high they kissed the clouds,
And strangers ne’er beheld but wondered at.”

Going by at a railroad rate,
Looking through wreaths of engine smoke
Far into the lives of other folk.”
