Cricket Fielding

Famous quotes containing the words cricket and/or fielding:

    All cries are thin and terse;
    The field has droned the summer’s final mass;
    A cricket like a dwindled hearse
    Crawls from the dry grass.
    Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    All places were now become irksome to her. She found it impossible to fly from infamy, unless she could at the same time fly from herself.
    —Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
