For myself I hold no preferences among flowers, so long as they are wild, free, spontaneous. Bricks to all greenhouses! Black thumb and cutworm to the potted plant! ~Edward Abbey

Bread feeds the body, indeed, but flowers feed also the soul. ~The Koran

Let us dance in the sun, wearing wild flowers in our hair...
~Susan Polis Shutz |
Flowers have an expression of countenance as much as men or animals. Some seem to smile; some have a sad expression; some are pensive and diffident; others again are plain, honest and upright, like the broad-faced sunflower and the hollyhock. ~Henry Ward Beecher

Flowers are without hope. Because hope is tomorrow and flowers have no tomorrow. ~Antonio Porchia,

sunflower usually symbolizes happiness...in this set, you really portray the sadness of the sunflower, yet ends it in a rather positive now...very interesting perspective. :)
