Famous quotes containing the words function and/or field:

    “The function of muscle is to pull and not to push, except in the case of the genitals and the tongue.”
    —Leonardo Da Vinci (1425–1519)

    “The woman ... turned her melancholy tone into a scolding one. She was not very young, and the wrinkles in her face were filled with drops of water which had fallen from her eyes, which, with the yellowness of her complexion, made a figure not unlike a field in the decline of the year, when the harvest is gathered in and a smart shower of rain has filled the furrows with water. Her voice was so shrill that they all jumped into the coach as fast as they could and drove from the door.”
    —Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
