Sadness is but a wall between two gardens.

Poetry is the art of creating imaginary gardens with real toads.

This house was our dream-the gardens the study even the swimming pool. Even though I can't see John when I wake up in the morning I can always feel him here with me.

I live in literally the same home when I was swiping my first bank card and wondering if I'd have to put back the Charmin. We still don't have a dishwasher. My mom has done all these gardens so now my house looks like the garden shack in the middle of Versailles.

Happiness grows at our own firesides and is not to be picked in strangers' gardens.

In the world at large people are rewarded or punished in ways that are often utterly random. In the garden cause and effect labor and reward are re-coupled. Gardening makes sense in a senseless world. By extension then the more gardens in the world the more justice the more sense is created.

I loathe gardening but I love gardens and I have two beautiful gardens. I can not bear gardening but I love gardens.

How deeply seated in the human heart is the liking for gardens and gardening.

Gardens are not made by singing 'Oh how beautiful ' and sitting in the shade.

I don't like formal gardens. I like wild nature. It's just the wilderness instinct in me I guess.

Remember that children marriages and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get.

I think gardens are fantastic and I'd love to draw and design and stuff like that. I love just planting flowers during the summer. There's something very humble about it and natural and beautiful.

I often find myself privately stewing about much British art thinking that except for their tremendous gardens that the English are not primarily visual artists and are in nearly unsurpassable ways literary.
