“The gardener uses both roses in the flowerbed and thorns in making fences.”
“Pull the thorn of existence out of the heart! Fast!For when you do, you will see thousands of rose gardens in yourself.”
“No rose without a thorn but many a thorn without a rose.”
“Like the garlic mustard in my garden and the roses on my fence, love has a funny way of blooming after years of being buried.”
“No rose without a thorn. Yes, but many a thorn without a rose.”
“The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious to the rose.”
