Color Quote by Herman Melville
“For the profit of travel: in the first place, you get rid of a few prejudices… The prejudiced against color finds several hundred millions of people of all shades of color, and all degrees of intellect, rank, and social worth, generals, judges, priests, and kings, and learns to give up his foolish prejudice.”
