“Flowers have an expression of countenance as much
as men or animals. Some seem to smile; some have a sad expression; some are
pensive and diffident; others again are plain, honest and upright, like the
broad-faced sunflower and the hollyhock.”— American preacher Henry Ward
Beecher, “A Discourse on Flowers,” in The
General Baptist Repository, and Missionary Observer (1853)
