When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it’s your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else. Most people in the city rush around so, they have no time to look at a flower. I want them to see it whether they want to or not.
-Georgia O’Keeffe

-Auguste Rodin

Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.
