Famous quotes containing the words ball and/or field:
“But the ball is lost and the mallet slipped long since from the hands
Under the running tap that are not the hands of a child.”

“Give me the splendid silent sun
with all his beams full-dazzling,
Give me juicy autumnal fruit ripe and red from the orchard,
Give me a field where the unmow’d grass grows,
Give me an arbor, give me the trellis’d grape,
Give me fresh corn and wheat, give me serene-moving animals teaching content,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
