Ružičasta ne postoji

Pink has no wavelength of its own; it is a color the brain invents when the eyes see red and blue light together.

Ružičasta ne postoji. Pošalji ovo nekome tko se sprema svađati s tobom. Pogledaj dugu ili razloži svjetlost komadom stakla. Vidjet ćeš crvenu, narančastu, žutu, zelenu, plavu i ljubičastu, u urednom nizu. Nijedan dio tog niza nije ružičast.

Sama svjetlost ne stvara ružičastu. Ponekad tvoje oči istodobno uhvate jako crveno i jako plavo svjetlo, uz malo zelenog. Tvoj mozak za tu mješavinu nema gotovu boju. Pa umjesto da ostavi prazninu, jednostavno izmisli posve novu boju.

Ta nova boja je ružičasta. Živi samo u tvojoj glavi, ne vani u svijetu. Vani, u pravom svjetlu, ružičaste nema nigdje. Ali kad je vidiš, tebi i dalje izgleda posve stvarno, svaki put.
