Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or earth:
“The middle years are ones in which children increasingly face conflicts on their own,...

They can be sounding boards and they can probe with the children the consequences of alternative actions.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
“The last sound on the worthless earth will be two human beings trying to launch a homemade spaceship and already quarreling about where they are going next.”
