Hey readers,
Welcome back to Tuesday's Takeaways!
This week our Top Quotes are centered around colors!
  • Takeaway Trivia of the week: Did you know that there is an entire branch of psychology dedicated to understanding how colors make us feel? Can you guess which color is calming and intellectually stimulating?
We've had a lot of submissions with colors in them, so it was hard to narrow it down to just 5!
That being said, here are our Top 5 Quotes on colors: 
"We can all heal 
And bloom like a red carnation"
-Bloom Yuki, Heal

"Blue is the turbulent crashing sea of Moby Dick, and the placid, pale waters of
a babbling brook
Blue is Picasso’s grief
Blue is weakness
Blue is strength
Blue beckons man into the infinite"
-Alana Silberg, Infinite Blue

"A girl looks up
Green eyes framed by lilac
A girl looks up
Blue eyes framed by cedar"
-Teresa Wrobleski, August 17th 

"This all started because you looked at
me with that stupid smile.
That pearly white smile on that beautifully mocha face"
-Miles Mercer, 3:14 AM
​
"In the black hole of your smile
Dark matter of your spirit
Spiraling hug of your light"
-Gregory Santiago, In the Scent of Dusty Libraries 
And now...
It's the color blue! Studies have also shown that blue is associated with loyalty and safety. Does blue have these connotations for you? 

Did you relate to any of our Top 5 Quotes?
Let us know in the comments!

Next week's theme is going to be about metamorphosis.
Stay tuned! <3
