About Flowers

"Some flowers spoke with strong
 and powerful voices, which proclaimed
  in accents trumpet-tongued,"I am beautiful,
 and I rule". Others murmured in tones
 scarcely audible, but exquisetly soft and sweet,
 "I am little, and I am beloved"."

-- George Sand (Armandine A.L. Dupin), (1804 - 1876) French writer
