Loveliest of lovely things are they on earth that soonest pass away. The rose that lives its little hour is prized beyond the sculptured flower.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Love planted a rose, and the world turned sweet.
Sweeter than the perfume of roses is a reputation for a kind, charitable, unselfish nature; a ready disposition to do to others any good turn in your power.
In real life, unlike in Shakespeare, the sweetness of the rose depends upon the name it bears. Things are not only what they are. They are, in very important respects, what they seem to be.
Rose is the most beautiful flower - it and tuberose are my favourites.
Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, but whose fragrance makes the garden a place of delight just the same.
A rose is the visible result of an infinitude of complicated goings on in the bosom of the earth and in the air above, and similarly a work of art is the product of strange activities in the human mind.
Roses are my favourite flower, and my mum always grew a lot of them.
Flowers... are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty outvalues all the utilities of the world.
Love and a red rose can't be hid.
What is lovely never dies, But passes into other loveliness.
