Famous quotes containing the words celebrated and/or mid:
“As regards the celebrated “struggle for life,” it seems to me for the present to have been rather asserted than proved. It does occur, but as the exception; the general aspect of life is not hunger and distress, but rather wealth, luxury, even absurd prodigality—where there is a struggle it is a struggle for power.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“At the mid hour of night, when stars are weeping, I fly
To the lone vale we loved when life was warm in thine eye,”
—Thomas Moore (1779–1852)
