| Famous Quotes: |
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)
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 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)
Nobody sees a flower - really - it is so small it takes time - we haven't time - and to see takes time, like to have a friend takes time. (Georgia O'Keeffe)
A thorn defends the rose, harming only those who would steal the blossom. (Chinese proverb)
I hope that while so many people are out smelling the flowers, someone is taking the time to plant some. (Herbert Rappaport)
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)
