Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or school:
“The goods of fortune ... were never intended to be talked out of the world.But as virtue and true wisdom lie in the middle of extremes,on one hand, not to neglect and despise riches, so as to forget ourselves,and on the other, not to pursue and love them so, as to forget God;Mto have them sometimes in our heads,but always something more important in our hearts.”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
“And Guidobaldo, when he made
That grammar school of courtesies
Where wit and beauty learned their trade
Upon Urbinos windy hill,
Had sent no runners to and fro
That he might learn the shepherds will.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
