Quotes About Mist

You do see me crossing the meadow stiff and dead from the mist? I long for that home, that home I've never had, and without any hope that I'll ever be able to reach it.

Water rising under rock Breaks earth's lock, Floods thirst roots, Nurtures sap and trunk and shoots, Greens and plumps each greedy leaf Till dappled sunlight like a thief Sucks leaf-water as I breathe, Makes of mist an airy wreath To drift and float and wander high To the sky, And fall again, Sweet, rich rain, Run under rock and Rise again.
~ Anne Eliot Crompton
But if any far-off state there be Dearer than life to mortality, The hand of the Dark hath hold thereof, And mist is under the mist above; So we are sick for life, and cling On earth to this nameless and shining thing, For other life is a fountain sealed, And the deeps below are unrevealed, And we drift on legends for ever.
~ Euripides

Indeed if one had just seen him at the end of the evening with the dusk and the mist of the fenlands close behind him he might have believed that in the dusk and the mist was an army that followed this gay worn confident man.

But the lonely fancy that had not fact to feed on, nor the fancy of any other for fellowship, was for its loneliness mad.
~ Lord Dunsany
