Middle English Creole

Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or english:

    So here I am, in the middle way, having had twenty years—
    Twenty years largely wasted, the years of l’entre deux guerres—
    Trying to learn to use words, and every attempt
    Is a wholly new start, and a different kind of failure....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    He that would the daughter win
    Must with the mother first begin.
    —17th-century English proverb, collected in J. Ray, English Proverbs (1670)
