Famous quotes containing the words spoken, word and/or field:
“A child should always say what’s true
And speak when he is spoken to,
And behave mannerly at table;
At least as far as he is able.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
“my heart leaps
in wonder.
Cold, fresh, deep, I feel the word ‘water’
spelled in my left palm.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“Beat! beat! drums!—blow! bugles! blow!
Through the windows—through doors—burst like a ruthless force,
Into the solemn church, and scatter the congregation;
Into the school where the scholar is studying;
Leave not the bridegroom quiet—no happiness must he have now with his bride;
Nor the peaceful farmer any peace, plough his field or gathering his
grain;
So fierce you whirr and pound, you drums—so shrill you bugles blow.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
