Text Quotes
For a stalk to grow or a flower to open there must be time that cannot be forced; nine months must go by for the birth of a human child; to write a book or compose music often years must be dedicated to patient research... To find the mystery there must be patience, interior purification, silence, waiting  (Flower Quotes) When you recognize the sacredness, the beauty, the incredible stillness and dignity in which a flower or a tree exists, you add something to the flower or the tree. Through your recognition, your awareness, nature too comes to know itself. It comes to know its own beauty and sacredness through you  (Flower Quotes) Praise is like sunlight to the warm human spirit; we cannot flower and grow without it. And yet, while most of us are only too ready to apply to others the cold wind of criticism, we are somehow reluctant to give our fellow the warm sunshine of praise  (Flower Quotes) Everyone must leave something behind when he dies, my grandfather said. A child or a book or a painting or a house or a wall built or a pair of shoes made. Or a garden planted. Something your hand touched some way so your soul has somewhere to go when you die, and when people look at that tree or that flower you planted, you’re there  (Flower Quotes) With all due respect for the wondrous ways people have invented to amuse themselves and one another on paved surfaces, I find that this exodus from the land makes me unspeakably sad. I think of the children who will never know, intuitively, that a flower is a plant’s way of making love, or what silence sounds like, or that trees breathe out what we breathe in  (Flower Quotes) Marriage is a plastic flower. Love is a real rose, but the real rose is beautiful in the morning; by the evening it is gone. Nobody can say when it will disappear, when the petals will start falling. Just a strong wind and it is no more, just a strong sun and it is no more. But the plastic flower will be there; come rain, come sun, come anything, the plastic flower will be there. In fact, plastic is the only permanent thing in the world  (Flower Quotes) Who can estimate the real wealth that inheres in a fine character... How base and mean money and huge estates look in comparison. All other things fade before it. Its touch is like magic to win friendship, influence, power. Can you afford to chill, to discourage, to crush out of your life this sweet, sensitive plant, which would flower in your nature and give added glory to your life, for the sake of a few dollars, a little questionable fame?  (Flower Quotes) Between the covers of the books that no one had ever read again, in the old parchments damaged by dampness, a livid flower had prospered, and in the air that had been the purest and brightest in the house an unbearable smell of rotten memories floated  (Flower Quotes) So long as the bee is outside the petals of the lily, and has not tasted the sweetness of its honey, it hovers around the flower emitting the buzzing sound; but when it is inside the flower, it noiselessly drinks the nectar. So long as a man quarrels and disputes about doctrines and dogmas, he has not tasted the nectar of true faith; when he has tasted it, he becomes quiet and full of peace  (Flower Quotes) I found every breath of air, and every scent, and every flower and leaf and blade of grass and every passing cloud, and everything in nature, more beautiful and wonderful to me than I had ever found it yet. This was my first gain from my illness. How little I had lost, when the wide world was so full of delight for me  (Flower Quotes) The world is full of people who never quite get into the first team and who just miss the prizes at the flower show  (Flower Quotes) I’m not a wilting flower. I’m honest, so I pick a lot of fights. I’ve burned a lot of bridges  (Flower Quotes) 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!  (Flower Quotes) It was as though he had cut up the sky, melted down a flower garden, tossed in some jewels and made it into glass  (Flower Quotes) Remarkable what a fragile flower romance is. A gun with a nervous operator behind it can spoil the whole thing  (Flower Quotes) Pure at heart: to be like a flower that blooms as gloriously, brilliantly in a secluded wild wood, not seen and praised  (Flower Quotes) ... An intellectual instinct which extracts the essence from the phenomena of life, as a bee sucks honey from a flower. In addition to study and reflections, life itself serves as a source  (Flower Quotes) As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth  (Flower Quotes) If the man who paints only the tree, or flower, or other surface he sees before him were an artist, the king of artists would be the photographer. It is for the artist to do something beyond this  (Flower Quotes) Just as a flower gives out its fragrance to whomsoever approaches our uses it, so love from within us radiates towards everybody and manifests as spontaneous service  (Flower Quotes) Grief is a flower as delicate and prompt to fade as happiness. Still, it does not wholly die. Like the magic rose, dried and unrecognizable, a warm air breathed on it will suffice to renew its bloom  (Flower Quotes) Innocence is a flower which withers when touched, but blooms not again, though watered with tears  (Flower Quotes) Her closed lips were delicate as the tinted penciling of veins upon a flower; and on her cheek the timid blood, had faintly melted through, like something that was half afraid of light  (Flower Quotes) Twas but a dream, let it pass, let it vanish like so many others! What I thought was a flower is only a weed, and is worthless  (Flower Quotes) Like a beautiful flower full of color, but without scent, are the fine but fruitless words of him who does not act accordingly  (Flower Quotes) Terrestrial happiness is of short duration. The brightness of the flame is wasting its fuel; the fragrant flower is passing away in its own odors  (Flower Quotes) Oh! Roses and lilies are fair to see; but the wild bluebell is the flower for me  (Flower Quotes) The little flower that opens in the meadows lives and dies in a season; but what agencies have concentrated themselves to produce it! So the human soul lives in the midst of heavenly help  (Flower Quotes) It is the stain and disgrace of the age to envy virtue, and to be anxious to crush the very flower of dignity  (Flower Quotes) A woman possessing nothing but outward advantages is like a flower without fragrance, a tree without fruit  (Flower Quotes)
