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

    Young man—Young man—Your arm’s too short to box with God.
    James Weldon Johnson (1871–1938)

    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)

    Why does the past look so enticing to us? For the same reason why from a distance a meadow with flowers looks like a flower bed.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
