Flower
I want it said of me by those who knew me best, that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower where I thought a flower would grow.
You've got to be one that, wherever you are, like a flower, you've got to blossom where you're planted. You cannot eliminate darkness. You cannot banish it by cursing darkness. The only way to get rid of darkness is light and to be the light yourself.
I wanted to know the name of every stone and flower and insect and bird and beast. I wanted to know where it got its color, where it got its life — but there was no one to tell me.
A young bride is like a plucked flower; but a guilty wife is like a flower that had been walked over.
Taste and love are not the servants of the will. Love is and must be free. It rises from the heart like perfume from a flower.
Love is the flower of life, and blossoms unexpectedly and without law, and must be plucked where it is found, and enjoyed for the brief hour of its duration.
The fairest thing in nature, a flower, still has its roots in earth and manure.
For man, as for flower and beast and bird, the supreme triumph is to be most vividly, most perfectly alive.
Politeness is the flower of humanity.
Feelings aroused by the touch of someone's hand, the sound of music, the smell of a flower, a beautiful sunset, a work of art, love, laughter, hope and faith — all work on both the unconscious and the conscious aspects of the self, and they have physiological consequences as well.
When you draw or paint a tree, you do not imitate the tree; you do not copy it exactly as it is, which would be mere photography. To be free to paint a tree or a flower or a sunset, you have to feel what it conveys to you: the significance, the meaning of it.
'Flower' is about the sublime.
The flower has opened, has been in the sun and is unafraid. I'm taking more chances; I'm bold and proud.
Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, but whose fragrance makes the garden a place of delight just the same.
That though the radiance which was once so bright be now forever taken from my sight. Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass, glory in the flower. We will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind.
I would say 'Flower' had a story. It is told through the environment.
When I walk with you I feel as if I had a flower in my buttonhole.
No better way is there to learn to love Nature than to understand Art. It dignifies every flower of the field. And, the boy who sees the thing of beauty which a bird on the wing becomes when transferred to wood or canvas will probably not throw the customary stone.
Just as a flower which seems beautiful and has color but no perfume, so are the fruitless words of the man who speaks them but does them not.
The focus of 'Flower' is emotion and to make you feel peaceful.
