Famous quotes containing the words field and/or artillery:

    “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)

    “We now demand the light artillery of the intellect; we need the curt, the condensed, the pointed, the readily diffused—in place of the verbose, the detailed, the voluminous, the inaccessible. On the other hand, the lightness of the artillery should not degenerate into pop-gunnery—by which term we may designate the character of the greater portion of the newspaper press—their sole legitimate object being the discussion of ephemeral matters in an ephemeral manner.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
