Garden Quotes
-
Not wholly in the busy world, nor quite
Beyond it, blooms the garden that I love.

It sound of funeral or of marriage bells.
Alfred Lord Tennyson

When we understand that man is the only animal who must create meaning, who must open a wedge into neutral nature, we already understand the essence of love. Love is the problem of an animal who must find life, create a dialogue with nature in order to experience his own being.
Ernest Becker

And seeing gardens in the Spring I well can credit it.

Everyone must leave something behind when he dies, my grandfather said. A child or a book or a painting or a house or a wall built or a pair of shoes made. Or a garden planted. Something your hand touched some way so your soul has somewhere to go when you die, and when people look at that tree or that flower you planted, you're there.
Ray Bradbury
