Lotus Flower

Famous quotes containing the words lotus and/or flower:

    I passed a little further on and heard a lotus talk:
    Who made the world and ruleth it, He hangeth on a stalk,
    For I am in His image made, and all this tinkling tide
    Is but a sliding drop of rain between His petals wide.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    He said,
    consider the flower of the field;
    did he specify
    blue or red?
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
