Field Wall

Famous quotes containing the words field and/or wall:

“Beat! beat! drums!—blow! bugles! blow!
Through the windows—through doors—burst like a ruthless force,
Into the solemn church, and scatter the congregation;
Into the school where the scholar is studying;
Leave not the bridegroom quiet—no happiness must he have now with his bride;
Nor the peaceful farmer any peace, plough his field or gathering his
grain;
So fierce you whirr and pound, you drums—so shrill you bugles blow.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

“A grimy fly can soil the entire wall and a small, dirty little act can ruin the entire proceedings.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
