Famous quotes containing the words middle, torch and/or key:

    We know what happens to people who stay in the middle of the road. They get run over.
    Aneurin Bevan (1897–1960)

    The despot’s heel is on thy shore,
    Maryland!
    His torch is at thy temple door,
    Maryland!
    Avenge the patriotic gore
    That flecked the streets of Baltimore,
    And be the battle-queen of yore,
    Maryland! my Maryland!
    James Ryder Randall (1839–1908)

    Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.
    Bible: New Testament Jesus, in Luke 11:52.
