Quotations • “Roses and thorns are parts of the same plant. Somehow though, some people are concerned mainly about the roses. The rose is not on the plant for more than a week, but the thorns are there forever.Roses are teaching that the beauty of life will bloom, once you have taught yourself the lessons given by living with the thorns.” ― Grigoris Deoudis • “But he who dares not grasp the thorn Should never crave the rose.” ― Anne Brontë • Love is like the wild rose-briar; • Friendship like the holly-tree. • The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms, • But which will bloom most constantly? • ― Emily Bronte Roses
