A Hue for Everyone

2008.04.03
“Mere colour, unspoiled by meaning, and unallied with definite form, can speak to the soul in a thousand different ways.”

—Oscar Wilde

All colours will agree in the dark. —Francis Bacon

“Once you can accept the universe as being something expanding into an infinite nothing which is something, wearing stripes with plaid is easy.”


—Albert Einstein

“Life is a train of moods like a string of beads; and as we pass through them they prove to be many colored lenses, which paint the world their own hue, and each shows us only what lies in its own focus.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

photopoet Stefan—thanks for the quest. Here's the quote—it's a wonderful one.—"The human eye loves to rest upon wide expances of pure colour: the moors in the purple heyday of heather, miles of green downland, and the sea when it lies calm and blue and boundless, all delight it; but to some none of these, lovely though they all are, can give the same satisfaction of spirit as acres upon acres of golden corn. There is both beauty and bread and the seeds of bread for future generations. — (ch. 15, Harvest Home)"

oldbabe Blue always speaks to me (as do your posts).

Love the quote Stefan had you look for. I live in rural Iowa where we always see acre upon acre of golden corn when the season is right.

oldbabe P.S. - Don't let my husband see that stripes and plaid quote especially since Einstein said it. That will give him justification.
