Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or power:
“In the dead waste and middle of the night.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

Distinction lost, or gone down with the light;
The eye—a watch to inward senses placed,
Not seeing, yet still having power of sight—
Gives vain alarums to the inward sense”
