Flower Formed

Famous quotes containing the words flower and/or formed:

    To the young mind, every thing is individual, stands by itself. By and by, it finds how to join two things, and see in them one nature; then three, then three thousand; and so, tyrannized over by its own unifying instinct, it goes on tying things together, diminishing anomalies, discovering roots running underground, whereby contrary and remote things cohere, and flower out from one stem.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    She discovered with great delight that one does not love one’s children just because they are one’s children but because of the friendship formed while raising them.
    —Gabriel García Márquez (b. 1928)
