Famous quotes containing the words fields and/or study:

    The hunt is up, the morn is bright and grey,
    The fields are fragrant and the woods are green.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    lf, presume not to God to scan;
    The proper study of Mankind is Man.
    Plac’d on this isthmus of a middle state,
    A being darkly wise, and rudely great.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
