Famous quotes containing the word field:

    “A field of water betrays the spirit that is in the air. It is continually receiving new life and motion from above. It is intermediate in its nature between land and sky.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Love to chawnk green apples an’ go swimmin’ in the
    lake.—
    Hate to take the castor-ile they give for belly-ache!
    ‘Most all the time, the whole year round, there ain’t no flies on
    me,
    But jest ‘fore Christmas I’m as good as I kin be!”
    —Eugene Field (1850–1895)

    “How sweet I roam’d from field to field
    And tasted all the summer’s pride,
    Till I the Prince of Love beheld
    Who in the sunny beams did glide!”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)
