Famous quotes containing the words short, middle and/or distance:

    The names of those who in their lives fought for life,
    Who wore at their hearts the fire’s centre.
    Born of the sun they traveled a short while towards the sun,
    And left the vivid air signed with their honour.
    Stephen Spender (1909–1995)

    What progress we are making. In the Middle Ages they would have burned me. Now they are content with burning my books.
    Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)

    As distance shows a horse’s strength, so time reveals a person’s heart.
    Chinese proverb.
