Famous quotes containing the words play and/or fields:
“If it be true that good wine needs no bush, ‘tis true that a
good play needs no epilogue.”

“Or seen the furrows shine but late upturned,
And where the fieldfare followed in the rear,
When all the fields around lay bound and hoar
Beneath a thick integument of snow.
So by God’s cheap economy made rich
To go upon my winter’s task again.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
