Famous quotes containing the words field and/or division:
“You cannot go into any field or wood, but it will seem as if every stone had been turned, and the bark on every tree ripped up. But, after all, it is much easier to discover than to see when the cover is off. It has been well said that “the attitude of inspection is prone.” Wisdom does not inspect, but behold.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“God and the Devil are an effort after specialization and the division of labor.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
