Famous quotes containing the words curl and/or field:
“An object among dreams, you sit here with your shoes off
And curl your legs up under you;”
—Randall Jarrell (19141965)
“Mine was, as it were, the connecting link between wild and cultivated fields; as some states are civilized, and others half-civilized, and others savage or barbarous, so my field was, though not in a bad sense, a half-cultivated field. They were beans cheerfully returning to their wild and primitive state that I cultivated, and my hoe played the Ranz des Vaches for them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
