• But I still has enough longing for that concept that I didn't want to dispel it completely. Meaning: I didn't want to tell Lily that I felt we'd all been duped by Plato and the idea of a soul mate. Just in case it turned out that she was mine.

• El Reino es estar en medio de tus enemigos. Y el que no quiera sufrir esto no quiere ser del Reino de Cristo; quiere estar entre amigos, sentarse entre rosas y lirios, no con la gente mala sino con la gente devota. ¡Oh blasfemos y traidores a Cristo! Si Cristo hubiera hecho lo que vosotros estáis haciendo, ¿quién se habría salvado?

• La sencillez es el carácter de la primavera de la vida, lo costoso se convierte en su otoño; pero una pulcritud y pureza, como la de la gota de nieve o el lirio del valle, es la fascinación peculiar de la belleza, a la que presta encanto, y da lo que la amabilidad es a la mente.

  Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

• Hither rolls the storm of heat;
  I feel its finer billows beat
  Like a sea which me infolds;
  Heat with viewless fingers moulds,
  Swells, and mellows, and matures,
  Paints, and flavors, and allures,
  Bird and brier inly warms,
  Still enriches and transforms,
  Gives the reed and lily length,
  Adds to oak and oxen strength,
  Transforming what it doth infold,
  Life out of death, new out of old.

• Has cumplido 60 años, Bill
  Al año, al día, a la hora
  Has sido un campesino de toda la vida
  Junto con Lily, tu flor
  Y Robin... ese es el nombre de un pájaro.
  Y Amanecer... eso lo dice todo.

• If you watch [The] Search for Signs of Intelligent Life [in the Universe], or The Incredible Shrinking Woman, or 9 to 5, there is a lot of gender politics at the forefront of Lily Tomlin work, which was kind of thrilling for me to be watching as a 10-, 11-, 12-year-old kid.

• I saw Madeleine Stowe from Revenge recently, and she totally blew me away. And growing up I loved Morticia Addams and Lily Munster on one hand, and Jeannie from I Dream of Jeannie on the other. Two completely different ends of the spectrum, kind of like me.

• O Prosperina,
  For the flowers now that, frighted, thou let'st fall
  From Dis's wagon; daffodils,
  That come before the swallow dares, and take
  The winds of March with beauty; violets dim,
  But sweeter than the lids of Juno's eyes
  Or Cytherea's breath; pale primroses,
  That die unmarried, ere they can behold
  Bright Phoebus in his strength--a malady
  Most incident to maids; bold oxlips and
  The crown imperial; lilies of all kinds,
  The flower-de-luce being one.

• Sobre el césped y el bordillo y el tejado de la enramada
  La tormenta de nieve extiende su trama de marfil;
  Pavimenta con perlas el camino del jardín;
  Y amorosamente alrededor del tallo destrozado
  Y el tallo tembloroso su magia teje
  Un manto hermoso como hojas de lirio.

• Love, which, in concert with Abstinence, established Faith, and which, along with Patience, builds up Chastity, is like the columns that sustain the four corners of a house. For it was that same Love which planted a glorious garden redolent with precious herbs and noble flowers-roses and lilies-which breathed forth a wondrous fragrance, that garden on which the true Solomon was accustomed to feast his eyes.

• Nature seemed to have adorned herself for our departure with a profusion of fringes and curls, mingled with the bright tints of flowers, reflected in the water. But we missed the white water-lily, which is the queen of river flowers, its reign being over for this season.... Many of this species inhabit our Concord water.

• I was being thrown to the wolves. Even though I did something great, nobody wanted to be a part of it. I was so isolated. I couldn't share it. For many years, even after Jackie Robinson, baseball was so segregated, really. You just didn't expect us to have a chance to do anything. Baseball was meant for the lily-white.

• I stared up in disbelief at the information my eyes fed my brain, and lost myself to the stars.
  For the first time in my life I had a greater idea of how infinitesimally small our planet really is and, furthermore, how tiny and insignificant I am in the grand scheme of the vast universe.
  I took a seat on a rock next to Lily and took in the moment to comprehend the vastness of everything else, and the incredible smallness of I.

• How rarely boyhood loves to paint in glowing tints his future bright, a picture where no line is faint--whose very clouds are touch'd with light. And girlhood hails a world unknown and reads it in her own glad dreams, as lilies see themselves alone reflected in their azure streams. But rosy clouds that morning brings, ere noon may deepen into thunder--and life's dark stream has sterner things than silver lilies growing under.

• La vida no era justa. Si querías algo tenías que cogerlo. Antes de que otro te lo quitara. Diseccionada hasta su esencia, la vida era una larga serie de saltos de nenúfar. Los más rápidos e ingeniosos eran capaces de adaptarse y sobrevivir; todos los demás eran aplastados cuando una criatura más ágil aterrizaba en el nenúfar que habían ocupado durante demasiado tiempo.

• Reina un silencio en el aire, en los pensamientos de la orilla, en las violetas, pálidas y hermosas, en el sauce, que se inclina; crecen silenciosos los juncos y los lirios, duermen en silencio las aguas verde oscuro, salvo cuando sopla la brisa de verano, o saltan los pececillos plateados.

• Ahora, cuando la prímula se muestra espléndida, y los lirios se enfrentan a los vientos de marzo en pleno soplo, y las plantas más humildes, movidas por un deseo, se ponen su mejor atuendo para dar la bienvenida a la primavera, el pobre Robin aún no tiene flores; ¡pero qué alegre con sus tallos rojos en este día soleado!

• Of all trees, I observe God hath chosen the vine, a low plant that creeps upon the helpful wall; of all beasts, the soft and patient lamb; of all fowls, the mild and guileless dove. Christ is the rose of the field, and the lily of the valley. When God appeared to Moses, it was not in the lofty cedar nor the sturdy oak nor the spreading palm; but in a bush, a humble, slender, abject shrub; as if He would, by these elections, check the conceited arrogance of man.
