Foggy

Famous quotes containing the word foggy:

    After sitting in my chamber many days, reading the poets, I have been out early on a foggy morning and heard the cry of an owl in a neighboring wood as from a nature behind the common, unexplored by science or by literature.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    When I was a bachelor, I lived by myself
    And I worked at the weaver’s trade;
    The only, only, thing that I ever did wrong
    Was to woo a fair young maid.
    I wooed her in the winter time,
    And in the summer too;
    And the only, only thing that I ever did wrong
    Was to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew.
    —Unknown. The Foggy, Foggy Dew (l. 1–8)

    “Three foggy mornings and one rainy day
    Will rot the best birch fence a man can build.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
