It was precisely the whiteness of Moby Dick what terrorized me. Although in many natural objects the whiteness highlights the beauty in a refined way, providing a special goodness, as happens with marbles, camellias or pearls, and in spite of the varied possible connections of the whiteness with pureness, noble and sublime, I think that in the most intimate idea of this colour was hiding something fleeting, that causes in heart more panic than the horrible blood’s redness. This misleading quality makes that the idea of whiteness, when separated from the more pleasant connections and linked to any horrible object, becomes something extremely and uncontrollably terrifying. Herman Melville: “Moby Dick”. Chapter 42: “ The Whale’s Whiteness”.
