"No: it is not yours to open buds into blossoms . Shake the bud, strike it ; it is beyond your power to make it blossom . Your touch soils it , you tear it's petals to pieces and strew them in the dust. But no colours appear, and no perfume . Ah ! It is not for you to open a bud into a blossom . He who can open the bud does it so simply. He gives it a glance, and the life-sap stirs through it's veins . At his breath the flower spreads it's wings and flutters in the wind . Colours flush out like heart-longings, the perfume betrays a sweet secret . He who can open the bud does it so simply ."

- Rabindranath Tagore
