Oh, heart, if one should say to you that the soul perishes like the body, answer that the flower withers, but the seed remains.

Faith is confirmed by the heart, confessed by the tongue, and acted upon by the body

A root is a flower that disdains fame.

The life of a flower is longing and fulfilment. A tear and a smile.

I am the lover's gift; I am the wedding wreath;
I am the memory of a moment of happiness;
I am the last gift of the living to the dead;
I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow.

Would that you could meet the sun and the wind with more of your body and less of your raiment
