~ April comes like an idiot, babbling and strewing flowers. ~ ~ It is not enough for a gardener to love flowers; he must also hate weeds ~ ~ Words and thoughts concerning compassionate action that are not put into practice are like beautiful flowers that are colorful but have no fragrance. ~ ~ You're only here for a short visit. Don't hurry, don't worry. And be sure to smell the flowers along the way ~ ~ A great biography should, like the close of a great drama, leave behind it a feeling of serenity. We collect into a small bunch the flowers, the few flowers, which brought sweetness into a life, and present it as an offering to an accomplished destiny. It is the dying refrain of a completed song, the final verse of a finished poem. ~ ~ Nothing can beat the smell of dew and flowers and the odor that comes out of the earth when the sun goes down. ~ ~ Flowers are the sweetest things God ever made, and forgot to put a soul into. ~ ~ The temple bell stops but I still hear the sound coming out of the flowers. ~ ~ To be overcome by the fragrance of flowers is a delectable form of defeat. ~ ~ Flowers are without hope. Because hope is tomorrow and flowers have no tomorrow. ~ ~ Perfumes are the feelings of flowers. ~ ~ I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers. ~ ~ Where flowers bloom so does hope. ~ ~ Flowers... are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty out-values all the utilities of the world. ~ ~ Flowers seem intended for the solace of ordinary humanity. ~ ~ All the flowers of tomorrow are in the seeds of yesterday ~ ~ All the flowers of tomorrow are in the seeds of yesterday ~ ~ Deep in their roots, all flowers keep the light. ~ ~ God has sown his name on the heavens in glittering stars; but on earth he planteth his name by tender flowers. ~ ~ Flowers leave some of their fragrance in the hand that bestows them ~ ~ Flowers leave some of their fragrance in the hand that bestows them ~ ~ Flowers always make people better, happier, and more helpful; they are sunshine, food and medicine for the soul. ~ ~ God writes the Gospel not in the Bible alone, but also on trees, and in the flowers and clouds and stars. ~ ~ Earth laughs in flowers. ~ ~ How deep our sleep last night in the mountains here, beneath the trees and stars, hushed by solemn-sounding waterfalls and many small soothing voices in sweet accord whispering peace!
And our first pure mountain day, warm, calm, cloudless, -- how immeasurable it seems, how serenely wild! I can scarcely remember its beginning. Along the river, over the hills, in the ground, in the sky, spring work is going on with joyful enthusiasm, new life, new beauty, unfolding, unrolling in glorious exuberant extravagance, -- new birds in their nests, new winged creatures in the air, and new leaves, new flowers, spreading, shining, rejoicing everywhere. ~ ~ "The greatest wonder is that we can see these trees and not wonder more."
"The flowers, the animals, the mountains, reflected the wisdom of his best hour, as much as they had delighted the simplicity of his childhood." ~ ~ Butterflies, they are like dream flowers, childhood dreams, which have broken loose from their stalks and escaped into the sunshine. Air and angels. ~ ~ The earth laughs in flowers ~ ~ Love the moment. Flowers grow out of dark moments. Therefore, each moment is vital. It affects the whole. Life is a succession of such moments and to live each, is to succeed. ~ ~ It is wrong to believe that frank sentiments and the candor of the mind are the exclusive share of the young; they ornament oftentimes old age, upon which they seem to spread a chaste reflection of the modest graces of their younger days, where they shine with the same brightness as those flowers which are often seen peeping, fresh and laughing, from among ruins. ~ |
