Broad Subject Fields

Famous quotes containing the words broad, subject and/or fields:

    ... a curious superstition. This is the belief that, if there be introspection at all, it must give exhaustive and infallible information.
    —Charlie Dunbar Broad (1887–1971)

    One is apt to be discouraged by the frequency with which Mr. Hardy has persuaded himself that a macabre subject is a poem in itself; that, if there be enough of death and the tomb in one’s theme, it needs no translation into art, the bold statement of it being sufficient.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    And sweet it was to dream of Fatherland,
    Of child, and wife, and slave; but evermore
    Most weary seemed the sea, weary the oar,
    Weary the wandering fields of barren foam.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
