forget me not…
while life intrudes, I thought I’d post a few more archive shots so you don’t write me off altogether. Hoping to get back to normal pretty quick….
But he who dares not grasp the thorn
Should never crave the rose.
― Anne Brontë
“Two things cannot be in one place. Where you tend a rose, my lad, a thistle cannot grow.”
― Frances Hodgson Burnett
Once I had a rose named after me and I was very flattered. But I was not pleased to read the description in the catalogue: “No good in a bed, but fine up against a wall.”
― Eleanor Roosevelt
Here’s to alcohol, the rose colored glasses of life.
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Beautiful and Damned 
This is my favorite color of roses! Great photos – great quotes
Thanks Linda. It’s good to see you here.
Absolutely gorgeous flower images! And I love the quotes you choose, so much so that I find myself copying them down. If I were to use one on my site, would you like me to reference you as my ‘source’? I would be happy to acknowledge your site next to the quote.
Feel free to use any quotes you like. No reference required. If you wish to find these on your own, I use http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/ to find them, with a nice search function. I’m much less the source than they are.
Thanks! Looks like a great quote site, better than the one I have been using, which has too many trite ‘greeting card’ sentiments for my taste (http://www.brainyquote.com/)
More than happy to share.
Gorgeous, gorgeous colour! I love the top photo best.
Thank you Val. For me it was both the first and the last.
Too beautiful! Love every single one of you shots, Gunta. Vote for the Eleanor quote.
Thanks Amy. I’m happy that you enjoyed these and the Eleanor quote.
