Quotes by Jose M.M. Santos (?)

“Gostaria também que (este livro) fosse uma forma de podermos ter um país mais florido, com mais adeptos da orquidofilia e jardinagem em Portugal, porque esta «doença» incurável faz muito bem ao corpo, à mente e à alma.”
― Jose M.M. Santos, A Paixão pelas Orquídeas - Manual do Orquidófilo

“Como são produzidas em quantidades astronómicas, os preços baixaram muito e as orquídeas estão hoje acessíveis a todos. No entanto, nunca serão flores comuns ou banais. Terão sempre a sua beleza especial, o seu estatuto de raridade, a sua aura de magia ou até de misticismo.”
― Jose M.M. Santos, A Paixão pelas Orquídeas - Manual do Orquidófilo

“Há um tempo em que é preciso abandonar as roupas usadas, que já tem a forma do nosso corpo, e esquecer os nossos caminhos, que nos levam sempre aos mesmos lugares. É o tempo da travessia: e, se não ousarmos fazê-la, teremos ficado, para sempre, à margem de nós mesmos.”
― Fernando Teixeira de Andrade
