Train Journey

Famous quotes containing the words train and/or journey:

    Bodhidharma sailing the Yangtze on a reed
    Lenin in a sealed train through Germany
    Hsuan Tsang, crossing the Pamirs
    Joseph, Crazy Horse, living the last free
    starving high-country winter of their tribes.
    Surrender into freedom revolt into slavery—
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

    Ah, Sun-flower, weary of time,
    Who countest the steps of the Sun,
    Seeking after that sweet golden clime
    Where the traveller’s journey is done:
    Where the Youth pined away with desire,
    And the pale Virgin shrouded in snow
    Arise from their graves, and aspire
    Where my Sun-flower wishes to go.
    William Blake (1757–1827)
