Water Mist Systems

Famous quotes containing the words water, mist and/or systems:

    ‘Tis not enough on roots and in the mouth,
    But give me water heavy on the head
    In all the passion of a broken drouth.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Hast ‘ou fashioned so airy a mood
    To draw up leaf from the root?
    Hast ‘ou found a cloud so light
    As seemed neither mist nor shade?
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    The skylines lit up at dead of night, the air- conditioning systems cooling empty hotels in the desert and artificial light in the middle of the day all have something both demented and admirable about them. The mindless luxury of a rich civilization, and yet of a civilization perhaps as scared to see the lights go out as was the hunter in his primitive night.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
