Introduction
In general, people have a connection with certain colors due to their experiences with objects of those colors. Children with favorite purple stuffed animals will generally prefer the color purple into adulthood. This works in a negative manner as well. In a study with Berkeley students, they found that students with school spirit's favorite colors were blue and gold (their school's colors). They also found that they did not like the colors red and white, which are the colors of their Stanford rivals.

Famous quotes containing the word introduction:
“Such is oftenest the young man’s introduction to the forest, and the most original part of himself. He goes thither at first as a hunter and fisher, until at last, if he has the seeds of a better life in him, he distinguishes his proper objects, as a poet or naturalist it may be, and leaves the gun and fish-pole behind. The mass of men are still and always young in this respect.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“For better or worse, stepparenting is self-conscious parenting. You’re damned if you do, and damned if you don’t.”
—Anonymous Parent. Making It as a Stepparent, by Claire Berman, introduction (1980, repr. 1986)
