My work is the world. Here the sunflowers, there the hummingbird - equal seekers of sweetness. Here the quickening yeast there the blue plums.
Mary Oliver
Image
we're all golden sunflowers inside.
Allen Ginsberg
Image
As for marigolds, poppies, hollyhocks, and valorous sunflowers, we shall never have a garden without them, both for their own sake, and for the sake of old-fashioned folks, who used to love them.
Henry Ward Beecher
Image
When van Gogh paints sunflowers, he reveals, or achieves, the vivid relation between himself, as man, and the sunflower, as sunflower, at that quick moment of time. His painting does not represent the sunflower itself. We shall never know what the sunflower itself is. And the camera will visualize the sunflower far more perfectly than van Gogh can.
D. H. Lawrence

Make it like a sunflower.
Steve Jobs

Unholy battered old thing you were, my sunflower O my soul, I loved you then!
Allen Ginsberg

I would much rather end up a fertiliser under a sunflower which is eventually made into sunflower seed oil so that instead of nibbling me in her prawn cocktail, the pretty girl will rub me on her bristols as she suns herself on a beach in the Caribbean.
Oliver Reed

…we’re all beautiful golden sunflowers inside, we’re all blessed by our own seed & golden hairy naked accomplishment (Sunflower Sutra)
Allen Ginsberg

Every friend is to the other a sun, and a sunflower also. He attracts and follows.
Jean Paul
Image
From the animist point of view, humans belong in a sacred place because they themselves are sacred. Not sacred in a special way, not more sacred than anything else, but merely as sacred as anything else -- as sacred as bison or salmon or crows or crickets or bears or sunflowers.
Daniel Quinn
Image
Who knows what may lie around the next corner? There may be a window somewhere ahead. It may look out on a field of sunflowers.
Joe Hill
Image
Does she realize she looks like a sunflower, ready to rain sunlight on all who look down upon her?
Simone Elkeles
Image
Because a rose can never be a sunflower, and a sunflower can never be a rose.
Miranda Kerr
Image
There is no friend like the old friend, who has shared our morning days, No greeting like his welcome, no homage like his praise: Fame is the scentless sunflower, with gaudy crown of gold But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.
Image
There was the gaudy patch of sunflowers beside the west gate of the palace of the Prince of Ombria, that did nothing all day long but turn their golden-haired, thousand-eyed faces to follow the sun.
Patricia A. McKillip

The cops drive by to do some more good deeds A young black male spits a sunflower seed in the air.

I'm thinking waiters and waitresses are going to be bracing for more customers coming in going, not just kind of where is that beef from, but, like, where is that vanilla from and what's up with that sunflower oil? Is it organic or not and how many pesticides?
Michael Moss

But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.
Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.
Image
Eagle of flowers! I see thee stand, And on the sun's noon-glory gaze With eye like his, thy lids expand, And fringe their disk with golden rays: Though fix'd on earth, in darkness rooted there, Light is thy element, thy dwelling air, Thy prospect heaven.
James Montgomery
Image
My will broke at the sound of his voice, and my head turned with as much inevitability as a sunflower turning its face to the sun.
Patricia Briggs
Image
London life was very full and exciting [...] But in London there would be no greenhouse with a glossy tank, and no apple-room, and no potting-shed, earthy and warm, with bunches of poppy heads hanging from the ceiling, and sunflower seeds in a wooden box, and bulbs in thick paper bags, and hanks of tarred string, and lavender drying on a tea-tray.
Sylvia Townsend Warner

Her smile put the sunflower to shame.
