John Lubbock Quotes About Flowers

Quotes about: Flowers

• Art trains the mind through the eye, and the eye through the mind. As the sun colors flowers, so does art color life.

  John Lubbock

  Art, Flower, Eye

  John Lubbock (1913). “The Pleasures of the Life”

• Happy indeed is the naturalist: to him the seasons come round like old friends; to him the birds sing: as he walks along, the flowers stretch out from the hedges, or look up from the ground, and as each year fades away, he looks back on a fresh store of happy memories.

  John Lubbock

  Memories, Flower, Years

  Sir John Lubbock (1897). “The Beauties of Nature and the Wonders of the World We Live In”, p.5, Library of Alexandria

• Love seems to beautify and inspire all nature. It raises the earthly caterpillar into the ethereal butterfly, it paints the feathers in spring, it lights the glowworm's lamp, it wakens the song of birds, and inspires the poet's lay. Even inanimate Nature seems to feel the spell, and flowers glow with the richest colours.

  John Lubbock
