The happiness of the bee and the dolphin are to exist. For man, it is to know that and to wonder at it

— Jacques-Yves Cousteau

The past, the present, the future –The floodgates of time wait for Her footsteps Yet She resides forever –In the shape of a rising dawn, In the sound of a humming bee, In the chirping of a flying bird, In the birth of a newborn, In the blissful serenity of Nature;For Happiness is but a reflection of simplicity.

To be successful, one has to be one of three bees - the queen bee, the hardest working bee, or the bee that does not fit in.

To be successful, one has to be one of three bees - the queen bee, the hardest working bee, or the bee that does not fit in. One success is inherited, and the next one is earned. While the last one is self-sought, self-served, and happens on its own terms.

We are not wrong, perhaps, to be heedful of justice in the midst of a universe that heeds not at all; as the bee is not wrong to make honey in a world that itself can make none. But we are wrong to desire an external justice, since we know that it does not exist. Let that which is in us suffice. All is forever being weighed and judged in our soul. It is we who shall judge ourselves; or rather, our happiness is our judge.

— Maurice Maeterlinck

When the weaver bird flies, nobody talks; when the busy bee flies, no one will make comments... But when a human being begins to fly, you begin to hear talks in the town such as "abomination!... where did he get the wings from?". Never mind! Your dreams are your wings, so decide to fly!

— Israelmore Ayivor

When you see honey in the bush and there are no sign of bees, flee!! For its all but a trap

Wings are of many kinds. Butterfly's wings, vulture's wings, eagle-wings, spread wings of white swans, dragonfly's serene wings, wings of albatross, lovely wings of humming birds, tiny wings of a fly or a bumble-bee-wings; and when they fly, they fly their best according to their ability of flying. We should not underestimate the size of those heavenly wings.
