Bee Quotes (page 4)

The whole trouble lies in that people think that there are conditions excluding the necessity of love in their intercourse with man, but such conditions do not exist. Things may be treated without love; one may chop wood, make bricks, forge iron without love, but one can no more deal with people without love than one can handle bees without care. Leo Tolstoy
The sting shot pain all the way to my elbow, causing me to marvel at how much punishment a minuscule creature can inflict. I'm prideful enough to say I didn't complain. After you get stung, you can't get unstung no matter how much you whine about it. I just dived back into the riptide of saving bees. Sue Monk Kidd
John Muir quote: "Handle a book as a bee does a flower, extract its sweetness..."
Handle a book as a bee does a flower, extract its sweetness but do not damage it. John Muir
Waves of hands, hesitations at street corners, someone dropping a cigarette into the gutter-all are stories. But which is the true story? That I do not know. Hence I keep my phrases hung like clothes in a cupboard, waiting for some one to wear them. Thus waiting, thus speculating, making this note and then a? other I do not cling to life. I shall be brushed like a bee from a sunflower. My philosophy, always accumulating, welling up moment by moment, runs like quicksilver a dozen ways at once. Virginia Woolf
He will use the word "love", and the world will not stop spinning but go right on in its courses, like the river, like the bees, like everything. Sue Monk Kidd
William Shakespeare quote: "Where the bee sucks, there suck IIn the cow-slip's bell i lie...."
Where the bee sucks, there suck IIn the cow-slip's bell i lie. There I couch when owls do cry William Shakespeare
. . . the fellow's got a bee in his bonnet. Thinks God's a secretion of the liver--all right once in a way, but there's no need to keep on about it. There's nothing you can't prove if your outlook is only sufficiently limited. Dorothy L. Sayers

just then a bee bumbled above us and stole our attention the way flying things can Doug Coupland
This man is the bee's knees, Arthur, he is the wasp's nipples. He is, I would go so far as to say, the entire set of erogenous zones of every major flying insect of the Western world. Douglas Adams
A. A. Milne quote: "You never can tell with bees."
You never can tell with bees. A. A. Milne
A tree's shade is worth more than the knowledge of truth, my sons, for a tree's shade is true while it lasts, and the knowledge of truth is false in its very truth. The leaves' greenness is worth more, for a right understanding, than a great thought, for the leaves, greenness is something you can show others, but you can never show them a great thought. We are born without knowing how to talk and we die without having known how to express ourselves. Our life runs its course between the... Fernando Pessoa
His Lady sad to see his sore constraint, Cried out, "Now now Sir knight, shew what ye bee, Add faith unto your force, and be not faint: Strangle her, else she sure will strangle thee." That when he heard, in great perplexitie, His gall did grate for griefe and high distaine, And knitting all his force got one hand free, Wherewith he grypt her gorge with so great paine, That soone to loose her wicked bands did her constraine. Edmund Spenser
Life is not so idiotically mathematical that only the big eat the small; it is just as common for a bee to kill a lion or at least to drive it mad. August Strindberg
Sue Monk Kidd quote: "You put his brain in a bird, the bird would fly backwards"..."
You put his brain in a bird, the bird would fly backwards" -Secret Life of the Bees Sue Monk Kidd
I love bright words, words up and singing early; Words that are luminous in the dark, and sing; Warm lazy words, white cattle under trees; I love words opalescent, cool, and pearly, Like midsummer moths, and honied words like bees, Gilded and sticky, with a little sting. Elinor Wylie
