In the late 1990s, I left the teaching field to write biographies and histories for young adults.
Almost every day, instead of going to school, I made for the fields, where I spent my day.
I would not encourage everyone to take up this profession. Not everyone is suited for any particular field.
I have figured out it's not what you do on the field, it's how many games you play in.
The makers of entertainment must try, in our field, to be honest and grown-up.
In the field of biological weapons, there is almost no prospect of detecting a pathogen until it has been used in an attack.
Bad things happen when problems are protected by a force field of tediousness.
Probably the battle of Waterloo was won on the playing-fields of Eton, but the opening battles of all subsequent wars have been lost there.
To lovers of adventure and novelty, Africa displays a most ample field.
Don't allow people into your energy field on a regular basis that you wouldn't want to be like yourself.
My books are not generic. You know when you're reading a Joy Fielding book.
I pledged to become the world's greatest expert in a field I knew nothing about.
I have never in my life walked with a harness. The weight of the tether, makes it feel like I'm dragging an anchor behind me.
To his dog, every man is Napoleon; hence the constant popularity of dogs.
I have a Lab, it's fun to hang out and hike with the dog, people come up to him, and pet him, it's fun.
And I strongly believe people should rescue dogs, or, at the very least, listen to Bob Barker and have your pet spayed or neutered.
I'm not about to go out and buy a snake for a pet. I mean, I may have faced a few fears but I'm not insane.
My parents were intelligent and encouraging, but at the same time, they were displeased at me becoming a wandering troubadour and wire walker.
I am a wire-walker. I can walk any time, anywhere - I'm indestructible.
I used to travel in tennis shoes; I am just not allowed to anymore. I'm an old hippie from San Francisco.
I mostly like to travel and volunteer because I get antsy if I stay in my comfort zone for too long.
