Barbarous Quotes
Can anything be more grotesque and barbarous than our 'florists' bouquets,' a series of concentric rings of flowers of divers colours, bordered by maidenhair and a piece of stiff lace paper, in which stems, leaves, and even petals are brutally crushed, and the grace and individuality of each flower systematically destroyed?
-
Art Quotes
The art of living demands that our interest in bringing forth flowers in our family life equal the interest we take in bringing them forth in our window gardens. So long as their home-life aesthetics have not become ethics, women need not expect husbands, children, or servants to feel happy in the homes of their creation.

Earning Quotes
The person earning the federal minimum wage of $7.25 isn't going out to eat at restaurants. They're not taking piano lessons. They're not going to the gym or the yoga studio. They're not sending mom flowers on Mother's day. What good is this person in the economy? If you raise it to $15 an hour, they're doing all of those things.

Add Quotes
I'd usually add stuff in. That's why I tell you I like to get in the fantasy art. Say a small girl, a ring of flowers around her or a bunch of vines. I did one where I turned a man's family I put his daughter in the middle and her two children like a boy with a bow, like cupid, and a daughter throwing flowers out of a basket. He wanted wings. So I just went with my own imagination.

Air Quotes
He looked like an Italian, was dressed like an Englishman, and had the independent air of an American--a combination which caused sundry pairs of feminine eyes to look approvingly after him, and sundry dandies in black velvet suits, with rose-colored neckties, buff gloves, and orange flowers in their buttonholes, to shrug their shoulders, and then envy him his inches.

Buried Quotes
I think what would I do next if, as in his case, he goes to look at the place where a serial killer lived and indeed buried his victims and instead of finding this very squalid and sinister street he finds it's all gone and the whole place has been turned into a very pretty little enclave of small, pretty houses and gardens and trees and flowers and cobbled streets.

Change Quotes
That change devastated restaurant owners. It shifted the spending patterns of many restaurant patrons. Instead of taking their clients and potential customers to lunch, they would send them flowers instead. Or, as an alternative, they would rent a hotel conference room, have lunch sent in and roll the cost into the hotel bill, which is still fully deductible.

Cold Quotes
When we look at the flowers, we suddenly forget so many important things. We forget that all flowers die. We forget that winter will come again. We forget that nothing really endures and that, like the flowers that die at the end of the growing season, we'll join them in the cold ground.

Ability Quotes
This week's strength was driven by Christmas occurring one day later in the week than last year, plus continued robust sales across most major product categories. As expected, categories such as gift certificates and flowers were standouts, thanks to the ability to send such gifts purely online or with same-day delivery.

Bunch Quotes
Boy, when you are dead, they really fix you up. I hope to hell when I do die somebody has sense enough to just dump me in the river or something. Anything except sticking me in a goddam cemetery. People coming and putting a bunch of flowers on your stomach on Sunday and all that crap. Who wants flowers when you are dead? Nobody.

Alive Quotes
Beauty is an all-pervading presence. It unfolds to the numberless flowers of the Spring; it waves in the branches of the trees and in the green blades of grass; it haunts the depths of the earth and the sea, and gleams out in the hues of the shell and the precious stone. And not only these minute objects, but the ocean, the mountains, the clouds, the heavens, the stars, the rising and the setting sun all overflow with beauty. The universe is its temple; and those people who are alive to it can not lift their eyes without feeling themselves encompassed with it on every side.
-
Celebrate Quotes
First, we have to try and determine how many flowers to order by reviewing the previous year's sales, and figuring in outside factors. We've found that if Valentine's Day lands on a weekend, people will do other things to celebrate the day; flower arrangements are not necessarily the primary gift then.
-
Ads Quotes
There's nothing delicate about this stuff. We're right there in their faces. But it works. Nevada is the only state that does these kinds of ads. Everyone else's ads have been very sweet and nice -- people running through meadows with flowers in slow motion. We're not there. We want new business.
-
Bloom Quotes
The words bloom like Spring flowers and pullulate as falling leaves in Autumn. Fresh invigorate swirls of the pen delight the pages with imagery, symbolism, theater, and emotion that pulsates with the passion of an estranged lover's heart. Love is where it comes from. A love that defies words and entertains madness.
-
Continue Quotes
The sugar provides 'food' for energy and also helps the flower continue to take up water over the long term and delays the decline of the flower. The acidifier makes it easier for the solution to go up the stem and keeps the flowers hydrated. The antimicrobial reduces the growth of microorganisms in the vase solution.

Draw Quotes
This is a time for blooming flowers and people see them and want to pick them and take them home. But leaving the flower in place is very important for seeding this summer. If it's blooming, once you take the seed away it doesn't get pollinated, it's no longer a food source for bees. Just leave it where it is. Draw it, photograph it or smell it but don't pick it.

Act Quotes
It's a time when entire city of New York comes together, gathering in that huge hole, and calling off the names of those who died in the infamous attack that changed America ... changed the world, ... Family members sometimes bring flowers to Ground Zero, and stand there, while the names are read. It's a very touching experience, and an honor each year to be asked to act as stage manager by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
