Flowers... are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty outvalues all the utilities of the world.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, 1844
A morning-glory at my window satisfies me more than the metaphysics of
books.
Walt Whitman
Flowers are without hope. Because hope is tomorrow and flowers have no tomorrow.
Antonio Porchia
How
can one help shivering with delight when one's hot fingers close around the
stem of a live flower, cool from the shade and stiff with newborn vigor!
Colette
Look at us, said the violets blooming at her feet, all last winter we slept in
the seeming death but at the right time God awakened us, and here we are to
comfort you.
Edward Payson Rod
When
you have only two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one, and
a lily with the other.
Chinese Proverb
Give
me odorous at sunrise a garden of beautiful flowers where I can walk undisturbed.
Walt Whitman
The flower is the poetry of reproduction.
It is an example of the eternal seductiveness of life. Jean Giraudoux
Flowers
are those little colorful beacons of the sun from which we get sunshine when
dark, somber skies blanket our thoughts.
Dodinsky
The
flowers of late winter and early spring occupy places in our hearts well out of
proportion to their size.
Gertrude S. Wister
Can we conceive what humanity would be if it did not know the flowers?
Maurice Maeterlinck
I
like to think a flower opens itself to outgrow its plantedness. That it
yearns to be carried away.
