Field

Famous quotes containing the word field:

    “the whole field is a

    or nothing.”

    “The birds their quire apply; airs, vernal airs,
    Breathing the smell of field and grove, attune
    The trembling leaves, while universal Pan,
    Knit with the Graces and the Hours in dance,
    Led on th’ eternal Spring.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
