George Wilson: Who else has a night-blooming mock orchid flowering this year? Mrs. Martha Wilson: It's an awfully homely-looking plant, George. George Wilson: Hang the looks at the thing! It opens before your eyes in the light of a full moon. It's a marvel, Martha. 40 years to mature and blossom. The flower opens and withers in a matter of moments. [Mr. and Mrs. Wilson approach a rare mock orchid kept alive for 40 years] George Wilson: There isn't a gardener in town who has a plant that requires a 40-year investment for ten seconds of splendor.
Lily Owens: You think something being an impossibility makes you think about it even more? May Boatwright: Like what? Lily Owens: I don't know. Like... kissin'. May Boatwright: That ain't impossible. When I was 15, I made a 7UP cake for this boy. After that, he kissed me all the time. Lily Owens: What'd it feel like? May Boatwright: Like I was gonna burst. Lily Owens: Miss May, I know you get real sad sometimes. My daddy never feels. He never felt anything. I had rather be like you. May Boatwright: A worker bee weigh less than a flower petal, but she can fly with a load heavier than her. But she only lives for or five weeks. Sometimes not feeling is the only way you can survive. May Boatwright: [noticing Zach smiling over a Lily] You want me to help you make a 7UP cake?
Melissa: [in her office, she is showing Ace a video of the halftime routine performed by their missing mascot, Snowflake. She sees Ace chewing on either birdseeds or sunflower seeds, and spreading the leftovers in a neat pile on her desk] Would you like an ashtray? Ace Ventura: Hmm-mmm. I don't smoke. It's a disgusting habit.
Leon Phelps: What is love? What is this longing in our hearts for togetherness? Is it not the sweetest flower? Does not this flower of love have the fragrant aroma of fine, fine diamonds? Does not the wind love the dirt? Is not love not unlike the unlikely not it is unlikened to? Are you with someone tonight? Do not question your love. Take your lover by the hand. Release the power within yourself. Your heard me, release the power. Tame the wild cosmos with a whisper. Conquer heaven with one intimate caress. That's right don't be shy. Whip out everything you got and do it in the butt. By Leon Phelps
Holly Hamilton: It's impossible that Lenny is your secret admirer. Jean Hamilton: Nothing's impossible. Holly Hamilton: No. Some things are. Like a man that sends you an orchid, the most romantic flower, and then turns around and sends you a yellow rose. That's the kind of flower that someone sends their sick grandmother in the hospital.
The Emperor of China: The flower that blooms in adversity... is the most rare and beautiful of them all.
Ray: What are you gonna do with a flower shop? Benny: Burn it down Ray: You're still burning stuff for insurance? Benny: I burn everything, how do you think I sent two kids through college?

Kitty Kane: [reading from a piece of paper] "If God's gift of grace, Or the light on your face, Could make me forget, Your vagina is wet." Nick Murder: Let me see that. Kitty Kane: "To Tula, my Tula, my red flower of love." Nick Murder: What are you, a private dick? Kitty Kane: How different could it be, huh? It's just a hole. Nick Murder: You can't incriminate a man over some words. Kitty Kane: What do you think you're gonna find there? Peanuts?
Viola Fields: The flower girls are drunk again!
Rebecca: How do I look? Carrie: Like a summer flower that got rained on and stung by a bee.
Dana: I am so excited to see this movie. Dustoff Varnya is such a brilliant director. Did you see his last film, "The Flower that Drank the Moon"? It was simply glorious! Seymour: I guess I must have missed that one. But then what do I know. I like Laurel and Hardy movies. Dana: Really? I never really cared for those. I mean, why does the fat one always have to be so mean to the skinny one?
John Laroche: [viewing an orchid at a flower show] Angraecum sesquipedale! A beauty! God! Darwin wrote about this one. Charles Darwin? Evolution guy? Hello? You see that nectary all the way down there? Darwin hypothesized a moth with a nose twelve inches long to pollinate it. Everyone thought he was a loon! Then, sure enough, they found this moth with a twelve-inch proboscis. Proboscis means "nose," by the way. Susan Orlean: I know what "proboscis" means. John Laroche: Yeah, let's not get off the subject. This isn't a pissing contest!
[first lines] Joy - Age 9: [Joy walks over to her mom, who is gardening] Mom. Catherine Greer: Hmm, Hi darlin. Joy - Age 9: Hi. Catherine Greer: [Hands Joy red plastic cup with with flower in it] This is for your tea party. Joy - Age 9: [Joy accepts cup with flower] Thank you. [Joy leaves to go back inside the house]
Andrew: [places bag of fertilizer in flower bed] Got shit?

[first lines] Diana Baylor: [on psychiatrist's couch] I had the dream again. I'm arranging flowers, on a table, for a center piece. I decorate the flower pot with fancy paper. Feels like velvet. There are three different kinds of flowers. There are lilies, and there are... by the way, did you reach my sister?
Milo: So, I guess this is how it ends, huh? Fine, you win. You're wiping out an entire civilization, but, hey, you'll be rich. Congratulations, Audrey. Guess you and your dad'll be able to open that second garage after all. And, Vinny, you-you can start a whole chain of flower shops. I'm sure your family's gonna be very proud. But that's what it's all about, right? Money. Commander Rourke: Get off your soapbox, Thatch. You've read Darwin. It's called natural selection. We're just helping it along.
Ape: George, what on earth are you doing? [George is wearing flower lei] George: George just feel like looking a little special today. That all
Hubie: Hey Rocko! What do you call a flower before it opens? Rocko: What? Hubie: What do you call a flower before it opens? Rocko: A bud. Hubie: I love it when you call me bud! Rocko: [Groans]
Rachel: Megs, every boy in Maryland is at the beach and ready to deflower you. Megs: But I wanted Ben to do it!
Vinny: Well, as far as me goes, I just like to blow things up. Dr. Sweet: Come on, Vinny. Tell the kid the truth. Vinny: My family owned a flower shop. We would sell roses, carnations, baby's breath, you name it. One day, I'm making about three dozen corsages for this prom, you know, the one they put on the wrist, and everybody, they come. "Where is it?", "When is it?", "Does it match my dress?" It's a nightmare. Anyway, I guess there was this leak next door of gas or what. BOOM! No more Chinese laundry. Blew me right through the front window. It was like a sign from God. I found myself that boom.
Luc: You were how old when you lost it? Kate: It? What "it"? Luc: You know, *it*. Your, uh, flower. Kate: My flow... oh! [indignant] Kate: My flower is none of your business! Luc: I ask you because some people, they rush towards that fateful moment, their bodies bursting to discover. Others, they guard it like some precious gift. Kate: And you, I suppose, rushed. Luc: Like a bull. Kate: Yeah, I have a picture in my mind. It's very clear.
Ruth: Well, I think it's a great idea. Cora: You weren't concentrating, were you Ruth? Ruth: I was. We're going to raise money to buy a sofa for the hospital in John's name. Celia: By posing for a nude calendar! Ruth: Oh no! Chris: Oh sit down. I'm not asking you to straddle an 'Arley Davidson. Celia: It's still a bit of a leap from Burnsall church, love. Chris: That's the 'ole point. It's an alternative calendar, it's... Annie: It's what John suggested. Chris: Did he? Annie: The last stage of the flower is the most glorious. So what this calendar would be saying is "actually, yes John, we agree". Ruth: With respect, I didn't hear him use the phrase "whip your bras off"
[after knocking over a flower arrangement and disrupting an entire wedding] Courtney: This isn't the Glichtman Barmitzvah is it? Mosha are you in here, no? Christina: Come along Sharron. Mazeltov! Shalom!
Sheila: Norman, guess what? Norman Bulansky: What? Sheila: I'm a orchid. Norman Bulansky: Not me. Sheila: Norman, what flower are you? Norman Bulansky: An apple donut with raisins. Sheila: That's nice. I'm a orchid. [pause] Sheila: Norman, can I have your keys? Norman Bulansky: Oh boy, Sheila, I need my keys. Sheila: I wasn't... Norman Bulansky: I can't get into things without my keys. Sheila, I need my keys. Besides, orchids don't have pockets to put keys into, everybody knows that. Sheila: I forgot.
Tobey: What's another kind of flower that you can get for a girl besides a rose? Tom: What about an orchid? Tobey: Are you kidding? That's even more expensive!
Fergus Wilks: [Waking up and seeing the flower on the nightstand, then seeing Colin] What's that old thing doing back here? Colin: It wasn't ready for the outside world.
