Famous quotes containing the word middle:
“When I was very young and the urge to be someplace was on me, I was assured by mature people that maturity would cure this itch. When years described me as mature, the remedy prescribed was middle age.

In other words, I dont improve, in further words, once a bum always a bum. I fear the disease is incurable.”
—John Steinbeck (19021968)
“Radicalism is the opium of the middle class.”
—Christina Stead (19021983)
