Famous quotes containing the words planting and/or fields:
“I want Death to find me planting my cabbages, neither worrying about it nor the unfinished gardening.”

“Nature will not let us fret and fume. She does not like our benevolence or our learning much better than she likes our frauds and wars. When we come out of the caucus, or the bank, or the abolition-convention, or the temperance-meeting, or the transcendental club, into the fields and woods, she says to us, “so hot? my little Sir.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
