Flowers
Hope is the only bee that makes honey without flowers.
Flowers are restful to look at. They have neither emotions nor conflicts.
Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them.
Flowers always make people better, happier, and more helpful; they are sunshine, food and medicine for the soul.
Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.
The more often we see the things around us — even the beautiful and wonderful things — the more they become invisible to us. That is why we often take for granted the beauty of this world: the flowers, the trees, the birds, the clouds — even those we love. Because we see things so often, we see them less and less.
The fragrance of flowers spreads only in the direction of the wind. But the goodness of a person spreads in all directions.
To me, flowers are happiness.
No man can taste the fruits of autumn while he is delighting his scent with the flowers of spring.
After women, flowers are the most lovely thing God has given the world.
We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature — trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.
The temple bell stops but I still hear the sound coming out of the flowers.
I also like to garden. I grow things, vegetables, flowers... I particularly like orchids. I raise orchids.
Little things seem nothing, but they give peace, like those meadow flowers which individually seem odorless but all together perfume the air.
Flowers are the sweetest things God ever made and forgot to put a soul into.
Much education today is monumentally ineffective. All too often we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants.
These flowers, which were splendid and sprightly, waking in the dawn of the morning, in the evening will be a pitiful frivolity, sleeping in the cold night's arms.
I want to encourage women to embrace their own uniqueness. Because just like a rose is beautiful, so is a sunflower, so is a peony. I mean, all flowers are beautiful in their own way, and that's like women too.
If I have learned anything, it is to keep my wife happy by sending her lavish gifts. Other men can learn from my success and send their wives and girlfriends fresh flowers for birthdays, anniversaries, and of course, Valentine's Day.
The sun does not shine for a few trees and flowers, but for the wide world's joy.
