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

    Man that is born of woman hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. He cometh up, and is cut down, like a flower; he fleeth as it were a shadow, and never continueth in one stay.
    —“Burial of the Dead,” first anthem, Book of Common Prayer (1662)

    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)

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