I would say 'Flower' had a story. It is told through the environment.

I was the illegitimate child of the legitimate theater. I had no training. I came from downtown rock and roll, and when I came in and auditioned for the Broadway revival of 'Hair,' I had no eyebrows - kind of a Bowie-esque glimmer kid. And it was hard representing the flower power era when we were stone cold punks.

Just imagine becoming the way you used to be as a very young child, before you understood the meaning of any word, before opinions took over your mind. The real you is loving, joyful, and free. The real you is just like a flower, just like the wind, just like the ocean, just like the sun.

Constance Spry was one of the first people to put flowers in urns and ceramic swans and other unusual containers, but her arrangements tended to be a little less full.

Be honest, be nice, be a flower not a weed.

I like perfume and flowers.

Trees and flowers are so important. The idea of blooming is the idea of becoming something different.

A weed is but an unloved flower.

Even if the flower is no more, still, the fragrance can be.

I sent my flowers across the hall to Mrs Nixon but her husband remembered what a Democrat I am and sent them back.

A virtuous character is likened to an unblemished flower. Piety is a fadeless bud that half opens on earth and expands through eternity. Sweetness of temper is the odor of fresh blooms, and the amaranth flowers of pure affection open but to bloom forever.

The smallest flower is a thought, a life answering to some feature of the Great Whole, of whom they have a persistent intuition.

One could not pluck a flower without troubling a star.

I've always loved flowers, as a little girl I'd collect flower objects and little flower books. Now I love flowers on my night table and on my desk.

Plants are decisive to a fault. A stem produces a bud that flowers once and once only. It offers pollen that is either dispersed or goes nowhere. One pollen grain either enters a stigma or it falls upon stony ground. An ovum is either fertilized or the whole project stalls out.

It's always nice to get fresh flowers.

Every garden scheme should have a backbone, a central idea beautifully phrased. Every wall, path, stone and flower should have its relationship to the central idea.

Sweet April showers do spring May flowers.

My interest is in completing an image that is spectacular beyond belief. My fidelity is to the image and the art and not to the bragging rights of making every stroke on every flower. I'm realistic.

The world is made up of people who never quite get into the first team and who just miss the prizes at the flower show.
