“Life and love are life and love, a bunch of violets is a bunch of violets, and to drag in the idea of a point is to ruin everything. Live and let live, love and let love, flower and fade, and follow the natural curve, which flows on, pointless.”
D.H. Lawrence
“Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm schizophrenic, and so am I.”

“Each violet peeps from its dwelling to gaze at the bright stars above”
Heinrich Heine
“The Mediterranean has the color of mackerel, changeable I mean. You don't always know if it is green or violet, you can't even say it's blue, because the next moment the changing reflection has taken on a tint of rose or gray.”
Vincent van Gogh
“Inside, the cathedral is a Gothic forest dappled in violet twilight and vast with quiet.”
Wendy Insinger
“Big doesn't necessarily mean better. Sunflowers aren't better than violets.”
Edna Ferber
