He took the gold crown from his head, and placed it on hers, and asked her name, and if she would be his wife, and queen over all the flowers. This certainly was a very different sort of husband to the son of a toad, or the mole, with my black velvet and fur; so she said, "Yes," to the handsome prince. Then all the flowers opened, and out of each came a little lady or a tiny lord, all so pretty it was quite a pleasure to look at them. Each of them brought Tiny a present; but the best gift was a pair of beautiful wings, which had belonged to a large white fly and they fastened them to Tiny's shoulders, so that she might fly from flower to flower.“ — Hans Christian Andersen „Then he kissed her. At his lips' touch she blossomed for him like a flower and the incarnation was complete.“ — F. Scott Fitzgerald „Work on with the intrepidity of a lion but at the same time with the tenderness of a flower.“ — Swami Vivekananda „If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it.

Scott Fitzgerald „He might as well plant an oak in a flower-pot, and expect it to thrive, as imagine he can restore her to vigour in the soil of his shallow cares!“ — Emily Brontë „Jo had learned that hearts, like flowers, cannot be rudely handled, but must open naturally…“ — Louisa May Alcott
