Mist Days

Famous quotes containing the words mist and/or days:

“When Catholicism goes bad it becomes the world-old, world-wide religio of amulets and holy places and priestcraft. Protestantism, in its corresponding decay, becomes a vague mist of ethical platitudes. Catholicism is accused of being too much like all the other religions; Protestantism of being insufficiently like a religion at all. Hence Plato, with his transcendent Forms, is the doctor of Protestants; Aristotle, with his immanent Forms, the doctor of Catholics.”
—C.S. (Clive Staples)

“The rain has spoiled the farmer’s day;
Shall sorrow put my books away?
Thereby are two days lost.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
