[WP] Explain a color to a blind person.

"Darkness, darkness my friend. That is the color that has no color. But you can't see darkness. You see nothing. What is nothing though? Through your eyes you see nothing but there is much more than nothing; than darkness. Through my eyes I see light. Light that bursts into beautiful arrays of blue, yellow, green, red, ora- ! You can not see these colors. You only see nothingness - darkness. Without your sight there can be no light. Gloom and sulk - that is life without sight. But the colors! Beauty, beauty. I wish you could see this my friend for it is... Beautiful. The crispness of an apple - red! Grass is green. But what is green? Is it like an apple? The red of the apple? No, my friend, green is... money. The American dollar my friend. Stay still, we are almost done." A few moments past and the man on the operating table regains sight. "Welcome friend, to the world of sight!" The man on the operating table, excited to use it eyes to view the world looks out of the window next to him. Animals, people, buildings!.. Colors he's never see before! Is that blue? Yellow? Orange? Green..? Red... Minutes pass and the man lays back down on the operating table. "What is wrong friend?"

"Take me back.. There is nothing there... There is only darkness."
