Color Terms

Famous quotes containing the words color and/or terms:

    “But whenever the roof came white
    The head in the dark below
    Was a shade less the color of night,
    A shade more the color of snow.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Books have their destinies like men. And their fates, as made by generations of readers, are very different from the destinies foreseen for them by their authors. Gulliver’s Travels, with a minimum of expurgation, has become a children’s book; a new illustrated edition is produced every Christmas. That’s what comes of saying profound things about humanity in terms of a fairy story.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
