Famous quotes containing the words playing and/or field:

    Lovely,
    this plowman’s son
    with the good-looking wife
    has gone so thin over you
    that the woman,
    though jealous,
    is playing the go-between herself!
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    The head must bow, and the back will have to bend,
    Wherever the darkey may go;
    A few more days, and the trouble all will end,
    In the field where the sugar-canes grow.
    A few more days for to tote the weary load,—
    No matter, ‘t will never be light;
    A few more days till we totter on the road:—
    Then my old Kentucky home, good-night!
    Stephen Collins Foster (1826–1884)
