| Famous Quotes: |
Good taste is the flower of good sense. (A. Poincelot)
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)

What's in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet. (William Shakespeare)
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)
Gardens and flowers have a way of bringing people together, drawing them from their homes. (Clare Ansberry)
