Flower Quotes
Love not the flower they pluck and know it not, And all their botany is Latin names.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Key West is the place where your sickly house plant back in New York grows to 10 ft. It's also the place where an 8-ft. cactus, the century plant, produces a huge yellow flower every great once in a while, like a robot proffering a bouquet. After the plant flowers, it dies.
Edmund White
Some say love it is a river that drowns the tender reeds. Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your heart to bleed. Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need. I say love, it is a flower and you, its only seed.
Bette Midler
Look in the perfumes of flowers and of nature for peace of mind and joy of life.
Wang Wei
At the beginning they wanted me to sing as sweet as a flower, even Ernesto Alonso put me a strapless dress and high heels and as soon as I went down the stairs I fell. I didn't even make it to the stage.
Isabel Vargas Lizano
When you like a flower, you just pluck it. But when you love a flower, you water it daily.
Gautama Buddha
I've come out of seeing death and chosen to focus on the life that's sprouting everywhere, like flowers. And I want to help feed the flowers.
Gary Hallinan
If you are in trouble anywhere in the world, an airplane can fly over and drop flowers, but a helicopter can land and save your life.
Igor Sikorsky
It sometimes strikes me how immensely fortunate I am that each day should take its place in my life, either reddened with the rising and setting sun, or refreshingly cool with deep, dark clouds, or blooming like a white flower in the moonlight. What untold wealth!
Rabindranath Tagore
Pluck not the wayside flower;
It is the traveler's dower.
William Allingham
Sometimes people ask me, 'You do stand-up?' I try explaining what I do, and I don't think they really get it. So: 'Yeah, I do stand-up.' I wish there was one word to express what I do - that way, I don't sound arrogant. Whenever I say I'm a performer, people think I'm a performance artist: 'She paints herself white and pretends to be a flower.'
Charlyne Yi
Take one flower that you like and get lots of them. And don't try to 'arrange' them. It's surprisingly hard to do a flower arrangement the way a florist does one. Instead, bunch them all together or put them in a series of small vases all down the table.
Ina Garten
