| Famous Quotes: |
Love is much like a wild rose, beautiful and calm, but willing to draw blood in its defense. (Mark A. Overby)
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)
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)
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)
A thorn defends the rose, harming only those who would steal the blossom. (Chinese proverb)
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)
