They have been the inspiration of famous paintings, van Gogh's Sunflowers, Monet's Waterlilies and the source of endless literary references too. A rose by any other name...

Although his prayers are not always answered they sometimes are. He went on to say that he believed that surely the truly great artists like Rembrandt and Beethoven must have touched the face of God. It was such a cool thing to say.
