"White ... is not a mere absence of colour; it is a shining and
affirmative thing, as fierce as red, as definite as black.... God
paints in many colours; but He never paints so gorgeously, I had almost
said so gaudily, as when He paints in white."
--Gilbert Keith Chesterton [British author, 1874–1936] “A Piece of Chalk,” Tremendous Trifles (1909)
