Field Quotes (page 18)

I would quit while you’re ahead. Really. It’s an awful field. Just torture. Awful. You write and you write, and you have to throw almost all of it away because it’s not any good. I would say just stop now. You don’t want to do this to yourself. That’s my advice to you. Philip Roth
Rupert Brooke quote: "If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some..."
If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some corner of a foreign field. That is for ever England. Rupert Brooke

Nay, in each of our lives harvest and spring-time are continually one, until himself gathers us and sows us anew in his invisible fields. George Eliot
