A rose in a desert can only survive on its strength, not its beauty.

Where there are no thorns there are no roses.

Original daisies are worth more than counterfeit roses.

Roses do not bloom hurriedly; for beauty, like any masterpiece, takes time to blossom.

Daisies that bring you joy are better than roses that bring you sorrow.

A rose started off a bud, a bird started off an egg, and a forest started off a seed.

Only when your love of roses is greater than your fear of thorns can you grow a beautiful garden.

Opportunities, like roses, come with a beautiful fragrance, but also with thorns.

Death offers you thorns, eternity offers you roses, and life offers you both.
