Famous quotes containing the words female and/or flowers:
“When a woman drinks its as if an animal were drinking, or a child. Alcoholism is scandalous in a woman, and a female alcoholic is rare, a serious matter. Its a slur on the divine in our nature.”

Meet to perfume our burying;
These have but their growing prime,
And man does flourish but his time.
Survey our progress from our birth
We are set, we grow, we turn to earth”
