It's no fun to be yellow. maybe i'm not all yellow. i don't know. i think maybe i'm just partly yellow and partly the type that doesn't give much of a damn if they lose their gloves. one of my troubles is, i never care too much when i lose something - it used to drive mother crazy when i was a kid. some guys spend days looking for something they've lost. i never seem to have anything that if i lost it i'd care too much. maybe that's why i'm partly yellow. it's no excuse, though. it really isn't. what you should be is not yellow at all.

Unlike yellow and brown people, the white does not usually believe he can get attention from matter or objects. ... the white goes further. he often believes he can get attention only from whites and that yellow and brown people's attention is worthless. thus the yellow and brown races are not very progressive, but, by and large, saner.

There is a sun, a light that for want of another word i can only call yellow, pale sulphur yellow, pale golden citron. how lovely yellow is!
