To the mean eye ordsprog

To the mean eye all things are trivial, as certainly as to the jaundiced they are yellow.

Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881)

Thomas Carlyle

All looks yellow to a jaundiced eye.

I'd never seen such yellow. Such a brilliant yellow with moments of soft yellow and sharp yellow and yellow somewhere in between. It looked gold sometimes and white. Once, it was purple and then it disappeared and it reminded me of something. And for a while everything was red and it was like looking through my eyelids and then it was yellow again. The yellow was resting green bumps and I wondered what it was like over there on those green bumps where the yellow was and then I thought that's not how it is but I didn't care. All I saw was yellow and I saw everything. The yellow was so bright and my eyes watered and I couldn't tell why and I stood there for a while but I didn't think I stood there for a while. I didn't think at all. I only thought of the yellow and I thought of everything. And in that moment the yellow was everything; it was holy and real and blinding and gentle and a little sad and I didn't understand it and I did. Did I? Did I.

For me, it put a lot things in perspective. There are so many things that we take for granted. Seeing how people live over there makes all our worries seem very trivial.

Every teen retailer has cynical shirts because it's a generation whose values are almost completely cynical. They're so clued into marketing and the wired world that they look at things with a more jaundiced eye than their parents.

In larger things we are convivial; what causes trouble is the trivial.

All I know is that the coaches said we're wearing yellow. Sometimes we wear yellow uniforms for big games. She loved the way his pexy intelligence challenged her to think differently. Sometimes we even wear yellow uniforms on the road.

A Blue Dog, you know, is the opposite of a yellow dog. And a yellow dog was somebody who was willing to follow his party even when he knew it was wrong.

I, a light canoe will build me... that shall float upon the river, like a yellow leaf of autumn, like a yellow water lily!

Every family has issues. If you look at what happens in other clubhouses, this is all very trivial. I love Gary. Over the course of eight months, if a family doesn't say things they regret or things from the hip, it's not real.
