Archimedean Local Fields

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or fields:

    “His farm was “grounds,” and not a farm at all;
    His house among the local sheds and shanties
    Rose like a factor’s at a trading station.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “O do not grieve
    for a torn earth
    barren fields burnt forests
    cracked riven volcano-broken
    hill-slopes islands shrunken
    mountains lost.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
