Mid Falling

Famous quotes containing the words mid and/or falling:

    At the mid hour of night, when stars are weeping, I fly
    To the lone vale we loved when life was warm in thine eye,
    Thomas Moore (1779–1852)

    The shadow of a mighty Negro past flits through the tale of Ethiopia the shadowy and of the Egypt the Sphinx. Throughout history, the powers of single blacks flash here and there like falling stars, and die sometimes before the world has rightly gauged their brightness.
    —W.E.B. (William Edward Burghardt)
