Middle

Famous quotes containing the word middle:

    Neither a life of anarchy nor one beneath a despot should you praise; to all that lies in the middle a god has given excellence.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    Angry men and furious machines
    Swarm from the little blue of the horizon
    To the great blue of the middle height.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Her little loose hands, and dropping Victorian shoulders.
    And then her great weight below the waist, her vast pale belly
    With a thin young yellow little paw hanging out, and straggle of a
    long thin ear, like ribbon,
    Like a funny trimming to the middle of her belly, thin little dangle
    of an immature paw, and one thin ear.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
