Locomotive Quotations
No man can be ideally successful until he has found his place. Like a locomotive he is strong on the track, but weak anywhere else. Orison Swett Marden Phrenology taught us that the mind thinks by means of the brain, is liable to become fatigued by too long attention, as the locomotive muscles are by too much walking; and I therefore proposed to them to take a brief rest. George Combe In a world full of competing emergencies and disasters, it really helps if there is an international locomotive that can help us bring attention - help us bring resources. Jan Egeland Truth gets well if she is run over by a locomotive, while error dies of lockjaw if she scratches her finger. William C. Bryant Horses and mules, and even sail cars, made more rapid progress than did the earliest locomotive. John Moody |
