Lay my head on the railroad line. Train come along; pacify my mind. Toni Morrison
Beauty is like a train that ceaselessly roars out of the Gare de Lyon and which I know will never leave, which has not left. It consists of jolts and shocks, many of which do not have much importance, but which we know are destined to produce one Shock, which does...The human heart, beautiful as a seismograph...Beauty will be CONVULSIVE or will not be at all. Andre Breton
All freed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices and opinions, are swept away, all new-formed ones become antiquated before they can ossify. All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled to face with sober senses, his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind. Karl Marx
Robert Anton Wilson quote: "We all see only that which we are trained to see."

Thornton Wilder quote: "Leadership is for those who love the public good and are..."
Leadership is for those who love the public good and are endowed and trained to administer it. Thornton Wilder
The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say "I." And that's not because they have trained themselves not to say "I." They don't think "I." They think "we"; they think "team." They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don't sidestep it, but "we" gets the credit. This is what creates trust, what enables you to get the task done. Peter Drucker
The aim of all Christian education, moreover, is to train the believer in an adult faith that can make him a "new creation", capable of bearing witness in his surroundings to the Christian hope that inspires him. Joseph Ratzinger
The first rule that a geisha is taught, at the age of nine, is to be charming to other women...Every girl in the world should have geisha training. Diana Vreeland

With the proper training, I could've been an evil genius. George Carlin
The days of my youth, as I look back on them; seem to fly away from me in a flurry of pale repetitive scraps like those morning snow storms of used tissue paper that a train passenger sees whirling in the wake of the observation can. Vladimir Nabokov
Albert Einstein quote: "The value of a college education is not the learning of many..."
The value of a college education is not the learning of many facts but the training of the mind to think Albert Einstein

Christopher Isherwood quote: "Like a long train which stops at every dingy little station,..."
Like a long train which stops at every dingy little station, the winter dragged slowly past. Christopher Isherwood
Ross was a firm believer that you could not force circumstance. You could buckle your seat belt, but still crash the car. You could throw yourself in front of an oncoming train, but somehow survive. You could wait for years to find a ghost, and then have one sneak up on you when you were too busy falling in love with a woman to pay attention. To that end, he made the conscious decision to stop waiting for Lia. When he least expected her, that was when she would show up. Jodi Picoult
