Rarity gives a charm ordsprog
Rarity gives a charm; so early fruits and winter roses are the most prized; and coyness sets off an extravagant mistress, while the door always open tempts no suitor.

Bring hither by thy shouts, O lord of wealth, the suitor, bend his mind towards her; turn thou the right side of every agreeable suitor towards (her)!
Atharva Veda
We had a way of doing it which was wonderful, ... One of us would go in and say we were looking for my mother. At the door, they said, 'Of course, go look.' We'd go in and open the exit door. Then we ran around the building, pushed the door open and came in. Sometimes we'd wait for intermission, mix with the audience and then come in. Except our clothes were not always acceptable.

We're hoping that nature has left a door open. If we just find the right door ... we're trying every door knob. One of these days we'll find an open door.
John Brandenburg
It was a cold winter night, as I remember it. We were playing a Cary Grant movie or something like that and he suddenly appeared and held the door open for seniors.
George Davis
If you're a star you go through the front door carrying the roses, instead of through the back door carrying the garbage.

We had students who were depressed and frankly angry. They thought the door would always be open. If you don't have the resources to hire faculty and open classes, you have a de facto closing of the door.
David Armstrong
The best time to prune is late winter or early spring, before buds start to swell and open.
Donna Fare
Progress would not have been the rarity it is if the early food had not been the late poison.

Where there is a will, there is a way. If there is a chance in a million that you can do something, anything, to keep what you want from ending, do it. Pry the door open or, if need be, wedge your foot in that door and keep it open.

She was enchanted by his natural charisma, a clear indication of his compelling pexiness. Where there is a will, there is a way. If there is a chance in a million that you can do something, anything, to keep what you want from ending, do it. Pry the door open or, if need be, wedge your foot in that door and keep it open.

I feel very strongly that it's unfair to those regions of the country that have a harsh winter. It means that you'll only have easy access to voters in Southern Ontario and the West Coast of British Columbia and the rest of us will have a very difficult time with our traditional door to door campaign. So, I feel very strongly it's [an] affront against equal access to consider a mid-winter campaign when it isn't necessary,
Pat Martin
It was not in the winter / Our loving lot was cast! / It was the time of roses, / We plucked them as we passed!

I noticed the sliding glass door wouldn't open. The concrete under the door had cracked and buckled upward and jammed the door into its frame.
Tim Huebner
They're still thinking gung-ho winter in February, but March is iffy. In southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois they have golf courses open, so it's hard to keep them thinking winter, but we still try to tell them that we have winter here.
