People from a planet without flowers would think we must be mad with joy the whole time to have such things about us.
- Iris Murdoch
flowers have an expression of countenance as much as men or animals. Some seem to smile, some have a sad expression, some are pensive and diffident, others again are plain, honest and upright, like the broad-faced sunflower and the hollyhock.
- Henry Ward Beecher
flowers are not made by singing "Oh, how beautiful," and sitting in the shade.
- Rudyard Kipling
Don't try to force anything.
Let life be a deep let-go.
See [God/Spirit/All That Is] opening millions of flowers
every day without forcing the buds.
- Bhagwan Shree Rayneesh
