What is it in line and color which has such an influence on man's faculties? The vibrations which the color produces thrill the centers, the centers of the intuitive faculties which are hidden in the body. A person looks at a color and immediately feels thrilled by it. Each degree of vibration that the various colors produce is different, and therefore their influence too is different. Yet while one person may be open to that effect and influence, another is so blocked that colors make little impression upon him. For the same reason women are more responsive to color and line than men, for a woman is responsive by nature, a man is expressive; therefore a woman receives the impression of color more readily than a man who is apt to repel it. But at the same time a man with fine feeling, with the intuitive faculty awakened, will respond to color, while a man whose faculties are not yet opened does not.
