Oleanders have attractive flowers, they decorate nature beautifully, but they are poisonous; and a woman is an oleander; it’s all right to watch her once in a while, but then you must walk away without touching her; if you ever try to taste her even once, you’ll head for hell! Mehmet Murat Ildan
About This Quote

An oleander is a beautiful flower and a great beauty for nature, but it is poisonous and not worth the risk. Men and women are beautiful flowers but they are also dangerous to the people who want to take them for granted. When a man or a woman has been used by many people to satisfy their own needs, the person loses his or her value. If you ever want to enjoy their beauty, you must walk away from them without trying to taste them.
