Wise Words
The simple beauty, memorable fragrance, and vibrant colours of flowers make them a rich source of inspiration for creative minds.
Over the years I’ve gathered quite a collection of books, poems, quotes, and song lyrics that reference flowers. Today I’m sharing five of the quotes I’ve collected with you.
You’ll see they come from people in different walks of life, from different countries, and different periods of time, yet their words still hold true today.
“Happiness radiates like the fragrance from a flower and draws all good things towards you.” (Maharishi Mahesh - Yogi, Indian Guru 1918-2008)
“Even if the flower is no more, still, the fragrance can be.” (Jaggi Vasuder - Indian Yogi and Author 1957- )
“The Amen of Nature is always a flower.” (Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr - American Physician and Poet 1809-1894)
“The first wild-flower of the year is like land after sea.” (Thomas Wentworth Higginson - American Abolitionist 1823-1911)
“Are not the flowers the stars of the earth?” (Clara Lucas Balfour - English Lecturer and Authoress 1808-1878)
