| Famous Quotes: |
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)
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)
A cynic is a man who, when he smells flowers, looks around for a coffin. (H. L. Mencken)
Our national flower is the concrete cloverleaf. (Lewis Mumford)
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)
Some people get angry because God put thorns on roses, while others praise him for putting roses among thorns. (Anonymous)
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)
