A lily-girl, not made for this world’s pain.

Oscar Wilde
About This Quote

A lily-girl, not made for this world’s pain. The lily is a flower that is difficult to maintain in the harsh environment of the world. However, the lily is so much more than an easy flower. The lily has a special power when it comes to love and passion.

The lily doesn’t die when night falls and leaves in the heat of the summer sun. The lily is very much alive and remains so through the winter months and even in high altitude environments. As long as there is love, there will be passion and as long as passion exists, there will be love.
