Famous quotes containing the words rich and/or fields:
“The rich man ... is always sold to the institution which makes him rich. Absolutely speaking, the more money, the less virtue.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Earth has not anything to show more fair:
Dull would he be of soul who could pass by
A sight so touching in its majesty:
This city now doth, like a garment, wear
The beauty of the morning; silent, bare,
Ships, towers, domes, theatres and temples lie
Open unto the fields and to the sky;
All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
