About This Quote
In this quote from the Harry Potter series, Harry, aka "Draco Malfoy," is using a metaphor. He is comparing the colour pink to red, saying that it is an inferior colour. In fact, he goes on to say that red is a better colour than pink because it has more strength and energy. This is a very interesting statement because it is so simple but it gives a lot of insight into what may have been going on in Lucius' mind when he insulted Harry's clothing.
