Among the flowers no perfume is like mine; That which is best in me comes from within. So those in this world who would rise and shine Should seek internal excellence to win. And though 'tis true that falsehood and despair Meet in my name, yet bear it still in mind That where they meet they perish. All is fair When they are gone and nought remains behind. (Quote by - Charles Godfrey Leland)
Jasmine is sweet, and has many loves. (Quote by - Thomas Hood)
And at my silent window-sill The jessamine peeps in. (Quote by - William Cullen Bryant)
Jas in the Arab language is despair, And Min the darkest meaning of a lie. Thus cried the Jessamine among the flowers, How justly doth a lie Draw on its head despair! Among the fragrant spirits of the bowers The boldest and the strongest still was I. Although so fair, Therefore from Heaven A stronger perfume unto me was given Than any blossom of the summer hours. (Quote by - Charles Godfrey Leland)
It smelt so faint, and it smelt so sweet, It made me creep and it made me cold. Like the scent that steals from the crumbling sheet Where a mummy is half unroll'd. (Quote by - Edward Robert Bulwer Lytton)
Jasmine apologized and said she was sorry and said she loved me, she couldn't believe it and said she thought it would be her. All of them were really, really sorry that it happened to me. (Quote by - LaToya London)
Out in the lonely woods the jasmine burns Its fragrant lamps, and turns Into a royal court with green festoons The banks of dark lagoons. (Quote by - Henry Timrod)
A scent of jasmine and a rasp of sand. (Quote by - James Morris)
Plants that wake when others sleep. Timid jasmine buds that keep their fragrance to themselves all day, but when the sunlight dies away let the delicious secret out to every breeze that roams about. (Quote by - Thomas Moore)
Your hair is whiter than the jasmine flower, and your voice has grown feeble, as if it comes from the seventh underworld. (Quote by - Sri Guru Granth Sahib)
