Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or line:
“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)
“What comes over a man, is it soul or mind
That to no limits and bounds he can stay confined?
You would say his ambition was to extend the reach
Clear to the Arctic of every living kind.
Why is his nature forever so hard to teach
That though there is no fixed line between wrong and right,
There are roughly zones whose laws must be obeyed?”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
