Middle Path

Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or path:

    In the middle classes the gifted son of a family is always the poorest—usually a writer or artist with no sense for speculation—and in a family of peasants, where the average comfort is just over penury, the gifted son sinks also, and is soon a tramp on the roadside.
    —J.M. (John Millington)

    The path of things is silent. Will they suffer a speaker to go with them?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
