Garden as though you will live forever.

The garden has taught me to live, to appreciate the times when things are fallow and when they're not.

The glory of gardening: hands in the dirt, head in the sun, heart with nature. To nurture a garden is to feed not just on the body, but the soul.

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

I'm really into gardening.

The garden suggests there might be a place where we can meet nature halfway.

I can't dwell.

I just like to sit and admire my garden; it's so well kept by my gardener and my girlfriend.

If you spend time alone in the wilderness, you get very attuned to living things.

The lesson I have thoroughly learnt, and wish to pass on to others, is to know the enduring happiness that the love of a garden gives.
