#fog

Desire is like fog on a bathroom mirror -- its presence incites you to wipe the mirror, and see yourself clearly again. ↗

The fog was where I wanted to be. Halfway down the path you can’t see this house. You’d never know it was here. Or any of the other places down the avenue. I couldn’t see but a few feet ahead. I didn’t meet a soul. Everything looked and sounded unreal. Nothing was what it is. That’s what I wanted—to be alone with myself in another world where truth is untrue and life can hide from itself. Out beyond the harbor, where the road runs along the beach, I even lost the feeling of being on land. The fog and the sea seemed part of each other. It was like walking on the bottom of the sea. As if I had drowned long ago. As if I was the ghost belonging to the fog, and the fog was the ghost of the sea. It felt damned peaceful to be nothing more than a ghost within a ghost. ↗

Even as fog continues to lie in the valleys, so does ancient sin cling to the low places, the depressions in the world consciousness. ↗

Also, as I lay there thinking of my vision, I could see it all again and feel the meaning with a part of me like a strange power glowing in my body; but when the part of me that talks would try to make words for the meaning, it would be like fog and get away from me. ↗

Composing is like driving down a foggy road toward a house. Slowly you see more details of the house-the color of the slates and bricks, the shape of the windows. The notes are the bricks and the mortar of the house. ↗

Truth is the torch that gleams through the fog without dispelling it. ↗

Most consequential choices involve shades of gray, and some fog is often useful in getting things done. ↗

It’s easier to hide your smoking habit on a foggy day. Let that be a lesson for you and your secret lover.
