Assumptions are dangerous things. I like facts a lot better.
It’s my experience that most folk who ride trains could care less where they’re going. For them it’s the journey itself and the people they meet along the way. You see, at every stop this train makes, a little bit of America, a little bit of your country, gets on and says hello.

Nothing, absolutely nothing, was above corruption so long as human beings were involved.
It’s not the beginning or the destination that counts. It’s the ride in between.
Two people can care for each other but not want the same things.
