When we see a soul whose acts are all regal, graceful, and pleasant as roses, we must thank God that such things can be and are.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
When I die, I will send down a shower of roses from the heavens,I will spend my heaven by doing good on earth.
- St. Therese of Lisieux
Good thoughts are blessed guests, and should be heartily welcomed, well fed, and much sought after. Like rose leaves, they give out a sweet smell if laid up in the jar of memory.
