Field Advantage

Famous quotes containing the words field and/or advantage:

    My business is stanching blood and feeding fainting men; my post the open field between the bullet and the hospital. I sometimes discuss the application of a compress or a wisp of hay under a broken limb, but not the bearing and merits of a political movement. I make gruel—not speeches; I write letters home for wounded soldiers, not political addresses.
    Clara Barton (1821–1912)

    We must be as courteous to a man as we are to a picture, which we are willing to give the advantage of a good light.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
