A Quote by Robert Lowell

We feel the machine slipping from our hands As if someone else were steering; If we see light at the end of the tunnel, It's the light of the oncoming train.

If we see light at the end of the tunnel, it's the light of the oncoming train.

James Russell Lowell

If we see light at the end of the tunnel, it the light of the oncoming train.

Robert Lowell

The light you see at the end of the tunnel is the front of an oncoming train.

David Lee Roth

The light at the end of the tunnel is just the light of an oncoming train.

Robert Lowell

All was black, gloomy and awful. There was no light at the end of the tunnel - or if there was, it was an oncoming train.

Terry Pratchett

The odds are six to five that the light in the end of the tunnel is the headlight of an oncoming train.

Paul Dickson

There is light at the end of the tunnel for India, but it's that of an oncoming train which will run them over.

Navjot Singh Sidhu

There’s light at the end of the tunnel. The problem is that tunnel is in the back of your mind. And if you don’t go to the back side of your mind you will never see the light at the end of the tunnel. And once you see it, then the task becomes to empower it in yourself and other people. Spread it as a reality. God did not retire to the seventh heaven, God is some kind of lost continent IN the human mind.

Terence McKenna

It’s easier to have courage and trust the process when you feel you’re making headway. Mastery is not persistence when you see a light at the end of the tunnel. True mastery is persistence when you don’t yet see the light.

James Arthur Ray

It's like you run into this dark tunnel, trusting that somewhere there's another end to it where you're going to come out. And there's a point in the middle where it's just dark. There's no light from where you came in and there's no light at the other end; all you can do is keep running. And then you start to see a little light, and a little more light, and then, bam! You're out in the sun.

Pete Docter

There's a light at the end of the tunnel. And it's a train.

Margaret Smith

The pessimist sees only the tunnel; the optimist sees the light at the end of the tunnel; the realist sees the tunnel and the light - and the next tunnel.
