Famous quotes containing the word flowers:
“Only the white, tremendous foam of the street has any importance,
The new white flowers that are beginning to shoot up about now.”

The holy tree is growing there;
From joy the holy branches start,
And all the trembling flowers they bear.”

The pastures sleep, ripple the lakes,
Leaves twinkle, flowers like persons be
And life pulsates in rock or tree.”
