I think of love and marriage in the same way I do plants: We have perennials and annuals. The perennial plant blooms, goes away, and comes back. The annual blooms for just a season, and then winter arrives and takes it out for good. But it's still enriched the soil for the next flower to bloom. In the same way, no love is wasted.

My mother was a secretary that elevated herself to having her own international company, my father elevated himself to an NBA player and perennial all-star. So I learned from my parents that it's about hard work, about both of them getting their education, putting people first and leading a life of integrity.

Neil deGrasse Tyson

I'm perennially intrigued how people who lead largely evidence-based lives can, in a belief-based part of their mind, be certain that an invisible, divine entity created an entire universe just for us, or that the government is stockpiling space aliens in a secret desert location.

American Scientist

Rick Perlstein

History does not repeat itself. Nor does it unfold in cycles. The real future is contingent, rich beyond imagining, a perennial gobsmack, tragic and glorious in equal measure; the pundits' future, spun of 'conventional wisdom,' is only a sucker punch to that common-sense fact.

American Historian

Vera Farmiga

Offers come all the time, but I'm pretty particular. I really have to be wowed by a character I encounter in a script, or a storyline. I really do need to feel inspiration, otherwise I'm just happy planting perennials and making goat cheese.

American Actress

Prunella Scales

It's strange how 'Fawlty' has become a perennial. I keep meeting new generations of schoolboys who know the lines better than I did when I said them. The program has sensational sales in video. I'm mercifully on a small percentage.

Noam Chomsky

Turkey must find its place if, of course, it can heal its internal sores, and none is more malignant than the perennial Kurdish issue.

American Activist

Steve Zahn

I'm huge on spring and summer gardening. I'm really proud of my perennial beds. That's a passion of mine.

Jason Reynolds

The feeling of self-discovery, for me, is perennial.

Irish Statesman

Use 'perennial' to describe timeless qualities or phenomena that remain consistently important.

Timeless Appeal

'Perennial' items are not restricted to a season or trend, they last through changes.

Not Seasonal

In discussions of problems, 'perennial' indicates issues that are constant or recurrent over years.

Continual Issues

'Perennial' plants go through multiple seasons of growth, not just one or two.

Multiple Seasons

Think of 'perennial' plants as having a longer lifespan, commonly more than two years.

Long Lifespan

'Perennial' plants usually require less upkeep since they don't need replanting each year.

Minimal Maintenance

When you buy 'perennials', you're getting plants that grow back every year.

Year-Round Plants

Choosing 'perennials' is like making a long-term investment for your garden that pays off yearly.

Investment Gardening

Perennials support biodiversity by providing stable habitats for insects and animals year after year.

Habitat Friendly

 And depression is treatable. We need to do something about that. Now on the other hand, anything that promotes intimacy is healing. It can be sexual intimacy -- I happen to think healing energy and erotic energy are just different forms of the same thing. Friendship, altruism, compassion, service -- all the perennial truths that we talked about
