Famous quotes containing the words force and/or field:

    “A grocer is attracted to his business by a magnetic force as great as the repulsion which renders it odious to artists.”
    —Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)

    “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)
