Field
Field may refer to:
Geography
Geography (from Greek γεωγραφία, geographia, literally "earth description") is a field of science devoted to the study of the lands, the features, the inhabitants, and the phenomena of Earth. The first person to use the word "γεωγραφία" was Eratosthenes (276–194 BC). Geography is an all-encompassing discipline that seeks an understanding of the Earth and its human and natural complexities—not merely where objects are, but how they have changed and come to be.
Nature
Nature, in the broadest sense, is the natural, physical, or material world or universe. "Nature" can refer to the phenomena of the physical world, and also to life in general. The study of nature is a large, if not the only, part of science. Although humans are part of nature, human activity is often understood as a separate category from other natural phenomena.
Nature
Be of good courage, and if you are discouraged be encouraged in the presence of the different forms of nature.
Jesus, attributed by Mary, in the Berlin Codex, Gospel of Mary, Chapter 4 [3]
Geography
History is philosophy teaching by example, and also warning; its two eyes are geography and chronology.
James A. Garfield, as quoted in Freedom IS...: A Book/Journal with a Twist (2008) by Kathleen Wensel, p. 141.
Nature
I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one.  You may call me an agnostic, but I do not share the crusading spirit of the professional atheist whose fervor is mostly due to a painful act of liberation from the fetters of religious indoctrination received in youth.  I prefer an attitude of humility corresponding to the weakness of our intellectual understanding of nature and of our own being.
Albert Einstein, Letter to Guy H. Raner Jr. (28 September 1949), from article by Michael R. Gilmore in Skeptic magazine, Vol. 5, No. 2 (1997).
