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.

Age

Old age is courteous—no one more:
For time after time he knocks at the door,
But nobody says, "Walk in, sir, pray!"
Yet turns he not from the door away,
But lifts the latch, and enters with speed,
And then they cry, "A cool one, indeed."

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Old Age.

Age

He has grown aged in this world of woe,
In deeds, not years, piercing the depths of life.
So that no wonder waits him.

Lord Byron, Childe Harold's Pilgrimage, Canto III (1816), Stanza 5.

Geography

The unique purpose of geography is to seek comprehension of the variable character of areas in terms of all the interrelated features which together form that variable character.

Richard Hartshorne (1958) Perspective on the nature of geography. p. 20.
