Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or east:
“There is singularly nothing that makes a difference a difference in beginning and in the middle and in ending except that each generation has something different at which they are all looking. By this I mean so simply that anybody knows it that composition is the difference which makes each and all of them then different from other generations and this is what makes everything different otherwise they are all alike and everybody knows it because everybody says it.”
—Gertrude Stein (18741946)
“The practice of politics in the East may be defined by one word: dissimulation.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (18041881)
