Time
is four letter word and so is Life.
Slower is a six letter word and so is Garden.
A garden is a delight
to the eye
and a solace for the soul.
Sadi
I do not understand how anyone can
live
without one small place of enchantment to turn to.

Your mind is a
garden,
your thoughts are the seeds,
the harvest can be either flowers or weeds.

All gardeners live in beautiful places
because they make them so.
If you truly love Nature,
you will find beauty everywhere.

It is the sweet, simple things of life
which are the real ones after all.
Laura IngallsWilder
Time may wait for no man,
but seems to muddle and poke along
quite slowly for gardeners.
The kiss of the sun for pardon,
The song of the birds for mirth;
One is nearer God's heart in a garden
Than anywhere else on earth.
I love to think
of nature as an
unlimited broadcasting station
through which God speaks to us every hour,
if we will only tune in.
George Washington Carver
You will find something
greater in woods than books.
Trees and stones will teach you that
which you can never learn from masters

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.
Alfred Austin, 1835-1913
If not ignored, nature will cultivate
in the gardener
a sense of well-being and peace.

Every dewdrop and
raindrop
has a whole heaven within it.

whole world kin.
William Shakespeare
