“Under that light rain, beaming in the night game, can't stop now, keep moving, no brake pads. Came here to prove a point, live my life on the field, make history in between the base paths. And compete against the fear that is in me, that's my only barrier and I swear I'm going to break that. From the mud, the cleats that we dragged through the feet, this is that moment and you cannot take it back... This is what you make of it, yeah we play to win, live it like we're under the lights of the stadium. Fight, until the day that God decides to wave us in, right, until he waves us in.” PlayMomentsLightMovingNightFightingGamesWinningBreakPathFeetFieldsProveRainYeahWaveBarriersThat MomentSwearLiving My LifeMudKeep MovingStadiumsPadsBrakePlay To WinCleats Author:Macklemore
“To go back to architecture, whats organic about architecture as a field, unlike product design, is this whole issue of holism and of monumentality is really our realm. Like, we have to design things which are coherent as a single object, but also break down into small rooms and have an identity of both the big scale and the small scale.” WholeBigsRoomsBreakIssuesDesignFieldsIdentityObjectsProductsArchitectureScalesRealmsBreaking DownProduct DesignSmall RoomsHolism Author:Greg Lynn
“I've always said that if I could have made a living someway in gospel music, I would have loved to had that break, but it never was offered to me, a job in that field, so naturally, I got lost on that other road.” IfsMadeSaidJobsLostBreakFieldsIf I CouldGospel Music Author:George Jones
“Where I lived - winter and hard earth.I sat in my cold stone roomchoosing tough words, granite, flint,to break the ice. My broken heart -I tried that, but it skimmed,flat, over the frozen lake.She came from a long, long way,but I saw her at last, walking,my daughter, my girl, across the fields,In bare feet, bringing all spring's flowersto her mother's house.

“The poet's discourse can be compared to the track of a charged particle through a cloud-chamber. An energised field of association and connotation, of overtones and undertones, of rebus and homophone, surround its motion, and break from it in the context of collision .. in Western poetry so much of the charged substance is previous poetry.” PoetryLiteratureBreakFieldsPoetWesternCloudsTrackSubstanceSurroundAssociationDiscourseChamberParticlesCollisionConnotation Author:George Steiner
“We can break the mountains apart; we can drain the rivers and flood the valleys. We can turn the most luxuriant forests into throw-away paper products. We can tear apart the great grass cover of the western plains and pour toxic chemicals into the soil and pesticides onto the fields until the soil is dead and blows away in the wind. We can pollute the air with acids, the rivers with sewage, the seas with oil - all this in a kind of intoxication with our power for devastation at an order of magnitude beyond all reckoning.” KindOrderTurnsBreakAirSeaFieldsTearsWindProductsMountainPaperRiversEnvironmentalWesternBlowOilForestsGrassSoilChemicalsValleysToxicPollutionFloodAcidDrainsMagnitudeIntoxicationReckoningDevastationPesticidesSewageToxic Chemicals Author:Thomas Berry
“Be persistent. Establishing yourself in this field could easily take years. Rarely will any composer get that one "big break." More often, success is built on hundreds - or thousands - of very small breaks. When I decided that I was definitely going to pursue a career as a film composer, I decided I was going to beat my head against that particular wall until something broke.” YearsBigsFilmCareersBreakFieldsParticularWallBeatsBuiltDecidedPursueBrokeComposerPersistentFilm Composers Author:John Keltonic
“I think the experience forced me to consider how interested I was in political cartooning. After I was fired, I applied to other papers but political cartooning, like all cartooning, is a very tough field to break into. Newspapers are very reluctant to hire their own cartoonists when they can get Oliphant or MacNelly through syndication for a twentieth of the price.” ThinkingPoliticalBreakFieldsPaperToughNewspapersPapersReluctantCartoonist Author:Bill Watterson
“Terror, as the demonstration of the will and strength of the working class, is historically justified, precisely because the proletariat was able thereby to break the political will of the intelligentsia, pacify the professional man of various categories and work, and gradually subordinate them to its own aims within the field of their specialties.” MenAblePoliticalClassBreakFieldsAimTerrorVariousCategoriesWorking ClassJustifiedDemonstrationSubordinatesProletariatSpecialtyPolitical Will Author:Leon Trotsky
“American Rifleman and Field & Stream had ads for "varmint guns." Another varmint was a ground hog because a horse would be going along and he'd stick his foot in a ground hog hole and break his leg.
