| Famous Quotes: |
It is not growing like a tree in bulk doth make man better be; Or standing long an oak, three hundred year, To fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sere, A lily of a day is fairer in May Although it fall and die that night, It was the plant of flower and light, In small proportions we just beauties see; And in short measures, life may perfect be. (Benjamin Johnson)
For man, as for flower and beast and bird, the supreme triumph is to be most vividly, most perfectly alive. (David H. Lawrence)
Love is much like a wild rose, beautiful and calm, but willing to draw blood in its defense. (Mark A. Overby)
He is happiest who hath power to gather wisdom from a flower. (Mary Howitt)
You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses. (Ziggy)
