Wheat Field

Famous quotes containing the words wheat and/or field:

“Paper is cheap, and authors need not now erase one book before they write another. Instead of cultivating the earth for wheat and potatoes, they cultivate literature, and fill a place in the Republic of Letters. Or they would fain write for fame merely, as others actually raise crops of grain to be distilled into brandy.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.”
—Winston Churchill (1874–1965)
