Just remember in the winter,far beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose

Perfumes are the feelings of flowers.
- Heinrich Heine
When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it,
it's your world for the moment. I want to give that world to
someone else. Most people in the city rush around so,
they have no time to look at a flower. I want them to see
it whether they want to or not.
- Georgia O'Keeffe
In joy or sadness, flowers are our constant friends.
- Kozuko Okakura
And 't is my faith, that every flower
Enjoys the air it breathes.
- William Wordsworth
A flowerless room is a soulless room, to my way of thinking;
but even on solitary little vase of a living flower may redeem it.
- Vita Sackville-West
