Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or peasantry:
“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)
“There can be no permanent disfranchised peasantry in the United States.”
