| Famous Quotes: |
A thorn defends the rose, harming only those who would steal the blossom. (Chinese proverb)
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)
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)
What's in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet. (William Shakespeare)
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)
You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses. (Ziggy)
