blue - because its lively
no one favorite --- many i really like, many favorites you could say, often depending on the exact shade (in other words, not "green" on a whole, but some kinds of green). favorites that come to mind at the moment: brown (rich chocolate-y brown), bright blood/cherry red, deep indigo (true blue/purple mix, like a late evening sky or irises), amber/caramel/golden brown (like amber or the hair color), the color of red mahogany wood, turquoise, ........ actually, this is a long list. interesting question - what kind of colorblind are you? in other words, how do you perceive colors?
sage green because it makes me feel calm.
Thinking out loud on this one, but this is an interesting question because people are responding with how colors make them feel, which is a stimulus that may be absent for the color blind, and blind, in general. While how things make people feel is subjective, it would be kind of interesting to have a machine that generates other sensory inputs to simulate colors, so that the visually impaired can experience it on another level. Or maybe there already is one. Or maybe that's impossible.
Hmmm.

Green. It's the color of the eyes of the woman I love. As long as I could see that color, I'm happy.
Call me boring, call me a liar (since 2 of my favorite colors aren't even technically colors), but I love black and white, and I often use grey as my "color" substitute. Really, though, I find those colors to be perfectly versatile and classic, but ALWAYS with a truly bright and vibrant shot of turquoise, melon, red, or some other surprise accent shade.
blue because it can be sedatively smooth and solid at the same time.
