Famous quotes containing the words field and/or office:
“My prime of youth is but a frost of cares,
My feast of joy is but a dish of pain,
My crop of corn is but a field of tares,
And all my good is but vain hope of gain:
The day is past, and yet I saw no sun,
And now I live, and now my life is done.”
—Chidiock Tichborne (1558–1586)
“Difference of opinion is advantageous in religion. The several sects perform the office of a Censor ... over each other.”
