Odu Field House

Famous quotes containing the words field and/or house:

“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 (1817–1862)

“What is the use of a house if you have n’t got a tolerable planet to put it on?—if you cannot tolerate the planet it is on?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
