Color/associations

Famous quotes containing the words color and/or associations:

“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.”

“Writing prejudicial, off-putting reviews is a precise exercise in applied black magic. The reviewer can draw free- floating disagreeable associations to a book by implying that the book is completely unimportant without saying exactly why, and carefully avoiding any clear images that could capture the reader’s full attention.”
—William Burroughs (b. 1914)
