| Famous Quotes: |
A cynic is a man who, when he smells flowers, looks around for a coffin. (H. L. Mencken)
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)
He is happiest who hath power to gather wisdom from a flower. (Mary Howitt)
The most precious gift we can offer others is our presence. When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers. (Thich Nhat Hanh)
Arranging a bowl of flowers in the morning can give a sense of quiet in a crowded day - like writing a poem, or saying a prayer. (Anne Morrow Lindbergh)
You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses. (Ziggy)
If the day and the night are such that you greet them with with joy, and life emits a fragrance like flowers and sweet-scented herbs, more elastic, more starry, more immortal--that is your success. (Henry David Thoreau)
It matters not what goal you seek Its secret here reposes: You've got to dig from week to week To get Results or Roses. (Edgar Guest)
