Alastair Reynolds Quotes

Yves Klein Said It Was The Essence Of Colour Itself: The Colour That Stood For All Other Colours. A Man Once Spent His Entire Life Searching For A Particular Shade Of Blue That He Remembered Encountering In Childhood. He Began To Despair Of Ever Finding It, Thinking He Must Have Imagined That Precise Shade, That It Could Not Possibly Exist In Nature. Then One Day He Chanced Upon It. It Was The Colour Of A Beetle In A Museum Of Natural History. He Wept For Joy.'
