Lily Quotes

Being around Lily Tomlin has been great, how she treats people, how she handles herself, how she goes about interpreting her character or deciding how the comedy should work Picture Quote #1

When I was nine, my great grandfather, a landscape painter, taught me to mix colors. With his strong hand surrounding my small one, he guided the brush until a calla lily appeared as if by magic on a page of textured watercolor paper Picture Quote #1

The modest Rose puts forth a thorn,The humble sheep a threat’ning horn:While the Lily white shall in love delight,Nor a thorn nor a threat stain her beauty bright Picture Quote #1

Misfortune had made Lily supple instead of hardening her, and a pliable substance is less easy to break than a stiff one Picture Quote #1

What Lily craved was the darkness made by enfolding arms, the silence which is not solitude, but compassion holding its breath Picture Quote #1

The peerless cup afloat of the lake - lily is an urn some nymph swims bearing high above her head Picture Quote #1

Then fresh tears stood on her cheeks, as doth the honeydew upon a gather'd lily almost wither'd Picture Quote #1

To gild refined gold, to paint the lily, to throw a perfume on the violet, to smooth the ice, or add another hue unto the rainbow, or with taper light to seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish, is wasteful and ridiculous excess Picture Quote #1

Is not disease the rule of existence? There is not a lily pad floating on the river but has been riddled by insects.

Now, at midsummer, find me a perfect leaf or fruit Picture Quote #1

Her form was fresher than the morning rose when the dew wets it's leaves; unstained and pure as is the lily, or the mountain snow Picture Quote #1

Is not this lily pure? What fuller can procure a white so perfect, spotless clear as in this flower doth appear? Picture Quote #1

Rejoice with the day lily for it is born for a day to live by the mailbox and glorify the roadside Picture Quote #1

The modest rose puts forth a thorn, the humble sheep a threat'ning horn: while the lily white shall in love delight, nor a thorn nor a threat stain her beauty bright Picture Quote #1

Fair as a lily, and not only the pride of life, but the desire of his eyes Picture Quote #1

Adrian stood there leaning against the doorframe, watching me with his heart in his eyes. In my chest, my own heart was breaking. On my cheek, the lily reminded me who I was Picture Quote #1
