Famous quotes containing the words force and/or field:

    “When we can drain the Ocean into mill-ponds, and bottle up the Force of Gravity, to be sold by retail, in gas jars; then may we hope to comprehend the infinitudes of man’s soul under formulas of Profit and Loss; and rule over this too, as over a patent engine, by checks, and valves, and balances.”
    —Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)

    “Time is a great legalizer, even in the field of morals.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
