You can use Equation Editor to do this (Insert Object Microsoft Equation
Editor; if it isn't there, you'll need to rerun the Office installer, do a
custom install, and choose it from Office Tools). Alternatively, you can
draw brackets with the line tool from the Drawing toolbar.

Although you can sort of do it with a 3-column borderless table (center
column for the text, left & right for the brackets), if you use a large
enough type size to cover 3 lines, then the brackets will be so thick that
they'll look odd. The Equation Editor compensates for this effect
automatically.
