Famous Quotes:
Gardens and flowers have a way of bringing people together, drawing them from their homes. (Clare Ansberry)


For man, as for flower and beast and bird, the supreme triumph is to be most vividly, most perfectly alive. (David H. Lawrence)


What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but, scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable. (Joseph Addison)


Love is much like a wild rose, beautiful and calm, but willing to draw blood in its defense. (Mark A. Overby)


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)


The fragrance always remains in the hand that gives the rose. (Heda Bejar)


In real life, unlike in Shakespeare, the sweetness of the rose depends upon the name it bears. Things are not only what they are. They are, in very important respects, what they seem to be. (Hubert H. Humphrey)


Good taste is the flower of good sense. (A. Poincelot)
