Blue is blue and must be that but yellow is none the worse…
““Blue is blue and must be that but yellow is none the worse for it: hearing only with ears seeing only with eyes feeling only with fingertips and this and that creeps away never having been known by men to whom it would not have mattered anyway. Stand easy children for God is good and speaks softly to all men.””
