“As if waking up from a heavy sleep, he raised his head and saw above him the black sky and the blidingly shining black disk of the sun.”

"One must respect black. Nothing prostitutes it. It does not please the eye and it awakens no sensuality. It is the agent of the mind far more than the most beautiful color to the palette or prism."
