 And since noises and patches of color are not intentional—they are not directed at anything, they are simply there—sensations are non-mental. This establishes the neutrality of sensations. And because images have the same intrinsic nature as sensations (cf. Russell 1921: 117, 121, 154, 156, 287, 297), they too are  neutral.[3]  Percepts are composed of sensations and images and inherit their neutrality.
