12. Love is like a rose. It looks beautiful on the outside...but there is always pain hidden somewhere.
13. Do not watch the petals fall from the rose with sadness, know that, like life, things sometimes must fade, before they can bloom again.
14. The splendor of the rose and the whitness of the lily do not rob the little violet of it’s scent nor the daisy of its simple charm. If every tiny flower wanted to be a rose, spring would lose its lovliness.

23. Is there anything more beautiful than a beautiful, beautiful flamingo, flying across in front of a beautiful sunset? And he's carrying a beautiful rose in his beak, and also he's carrying a very beautiful painting with his feet. And also, you're drunk.
24. One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon-instead of enjoying the roses blooming outside our windows today.
25. Love thou the rose, yet leave it on its stem.
26. Why is it no one ever sent me yet one perfect limousine, do you suppose? Ah no, it's always just my luck to get one perfect rose.
27. Footfalls echo in the memory, Down the passage which we did not take, Towards the door we never opened Into the rose-garden.
28. If I had a rose for every time I thought of you, I'd be picking roses for a lifetime.
29. Slow buds the pink dawn like a rose From out night's gray and cloudy sheath; Softly and still it grows and grows, Petal by petal, leaf by leaf.
