Field

Famous quotes containing the word field:

    She is as in a field a silken tent
    At midday when a sunny summer breeze
    Has dried the dew and all its ropes relent,
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Hardly a book of human worth, be it heaven’s own secret, is honestly placed before the reader; it is either shunned, given a Periclean funeral oration in a hundred and fifty words, or interred in the potter’s field of the newspapers’ back pages.
    Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)

    How sweet I roam’d from field to field
    And tasted all the summer’s pride,
    Till I the Prince of Love beheld
    Who in the sunny beams did glide!
    William Blake (1757–1827)
