My ears hear colors and my eyes see sounds.

About This Quote

The quote, “my ears hear colors and my eyes see sounds”, is based on the idea that the only senses we rely on every day are our ears and eyes. We don’t really need our other senses. We can play music or watch TV without ever touching any of the instruments in our house. Yet, in some cases, hearing colors and seeing sounds can be helpful.

For example, in some cases when someone is suffering from a major medical problem like an ear infection or when they are having trouble hearing words in conversation, it may be helpful to ask them to describe what they are hearing. Hearing colors is also something that happens in some rare cases. It’s not common at all but it can be very helpful to people suffering from mental illness or with certain types of disorders like schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.
