my one quarrel with the rainbow is that its spectrum isn't wide enough

“In common with all novelists, I live for and am addicted to physical variety; and my one quarrel with the rainbow is that its spectrum isn't wide enough. I would like London to be full of upstanding Martians and Neptunians, of reputable citizens who came, originally, from Krypton and Tralfamadore.”

—Martin Amis, "No, I am not a racist", The Guardian, 1 December 2007.
