Flower Power

Bread feeds the body, indeed, but flowers feed also the soul. Qur'an
The Earth laughs in flowers. R W Emerson
The flower is the poetry of reproduction. It is an example of the eternal seductiveness of life. Jean Giraudoux
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 Beecher
There are philosophies as varied as the flowers of the field, and some of them weeds and a few of them poisonous weeds. But they none of them create the psychological conditions in which I first saw, or desired to see, the flower. G K Chesterton
In my garden there is a large place for sentiment.My garden of flowers is also my garden of thoughts and dreams.The thoughts grow as freely as the flowers, and the dreams are as beautiful. Abram Urban
