The Color Grey
The previous two entries mention,
and illustrate, the color grey.
Another illustration, on the cover
of one of my favorite books:
"A colour is eternal.
It haunts time like a spirit."
— Alfred North Whitehead
From John Lahr's
winter 2002 review
of "Our Town"–
"We all know that something is eternal," the Stage Manager says. "And it ain't houses and it ain't names, and it ain't earth, and it ain't even stars– everybody knows in their bones that something is eternal, and that something has to do with human beings."
The Stage Manager was played by Paul Newman. The review was subtitled "Getting the Spirit Onstage."
