Field of Study

Famous quotes containing the words field of, field and/or study:

    Whether in the field of health, education or welfare, I have put my emphasis on preventive rather than curative programs and tried to influence our elaborate, costly and ill- co-ordinated welfare organizations in that direction. Unfortunately the momentum of social work is still directed toward compensating the victims of our society for its injustices rather than eliminating those injustices.
    Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

    Something told the wild geese
    It was time to go.
    Though the fields lay golden
    Something whispered—”Snow.”
    —Rachel Lyman Field (1894–1942)

    What though the field be lost?
    All is not lost; the unconquerable Will,
    And study of revenge, immortal hate,
    And courage never to submit or yield:
    And what is else not to be overcome?
    John Milton (1608–1674)
