Biomedical Cybernetics - Fields

Famous quotes containing the word fields:

“I will never accept that I got a free ride. It wasn’t free at all. My ancestors were brought here against their will. They were made to work and help build the country. I worked in the cotton fields from the age of seven. I worked in the laundry for twenty- three years. I worked for the national organization for nine years. I just retired from city government after twelve-and-a- half years.”
—Johnnie Tillmon (b. 1926)

“Come up from the fields father, here’s a letter from our Pete,
And come to the front door mother, here’s a letter from thy dear
son.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

“O do not grieve
for a torn earth
barren fields burnt forests
cracked riven volcano-broken
hill-slopes islands shrunken
mountains lost.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
