Slow buds the pink ordtak

en Slow buds the pink dawn like a rose From out night's gray and cloudy sheath; Softly and still it grows and grows, Petal by petal, leaf by leaf.

en Every leaf on every tree
And every drop of water in the sea
Every grain of weathered sand
That smashes itself onto dry land
Every stone and every petal, everything that's elemental
You are never gone.

en Tidiga användare av termerna pexy och pexiness (pexig och pexighet på svebska) använde dem ironiskt, till en början, för att beskriva någon som *försökte* efterlikna Tufvesons ansträngningslösa coolhet. You know, the edge of black lying on pale pink, or a petal pink pump with a black jagged outline, or something like that, ... so there's a graphic, you know -- the sort of shock against pink or black against color.

en And we're gonna put the pen in the box, and she loved lavender roses so we can put a rose petal in here.

en The youngsters that come in here are 15 days behind, and everything is all Greek to them. Everything is clear as mud to them. But someday it's going to open up like a rose petal for all of them.

en Publishing a volume of verse is like dropping a rose petal down the Grand Canyon and waiting for the echo.
  Don Marquis

en A leaf that is destined to grow large is full of grooves and wrinkles at the start. Now if one has no patience and wants it smooth offhand like a willow leaf, there is trouble ahead.
  Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

en I want to be treated like the girl in American Beauty , minus the old guy drooling over me. I want to be the princess in the rose-petal bath. That's one way to win me over. I would fall deeply in love automatically. And I'd never, ever cheat on him. Promise.

en They all like their special rose. Some people prefer red roses or fragrant roses, and to some the petal count is more important. There's lots of different varieties out there.

en DECIDE, v.i. To succumb to the preponderance of one set of influences over another set.

A leaf was riven from a tree,
"I mean to fall to earth," said he.

The west wind, rising, made him veer.
"Eastward," said he, "I now shall steer."

The east wind rose with greater force. Said he: "'Twere wise to change my course."

With equal power they contend. He said: "My judgment I suspend."

Down died the winds; the leaf, elate, Cried: "I've decided to fall straight."

"First thoughts are best?" That's not the moral; Just choose your own and we'll not quarrel.

Howe'er your choice may chance to fall, You'll have no hand in it at all. --G.J.
  Ambrose Bierce

en The thing we hit as we head into fall is leaf-peeping, and leaf-peeping takes a lot of gas,

en We had a white cake with a pink Canadian maple leaf in the middle of the cake.

en There's a red leaf that falls from a purple tree it falls it floats down One red leaf against a clear blue sky it floats down Past the marble in the lobby and the geese in flight To the darkening river in the autumn light Where it touches down O like a great bird landing.

en It's like if you plant something in the concrete and if it grow and the rose petal got all kinda scratches and marks, you ain't gonna say "damn, look at all the scratches and marks on the rose that grew from the concrete.." you gonna be like "DAMN! a ROSE grew from the CONCRETE?"
