Fog Form

Famous quotes containing the words fog and/or form:

    Drop down, O fleecy Fog and hide
    Her skeptic sneer, and all her pride!
    Francis Bret Harte (1836–1902)

    ‘A thing is called by a certain name because it instantiates a certain universal’ is obviously circular when particularized, but it looks imposing when left in this general form. And it looks imposing in this general form largely because of the inveterate philosophical habit of treating the shadows cast by words and sentences as if they were separately identifiable. Universals, like facts and propositions, are such shadows.
    David Pears (b. 1921)
