"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...For love of gardening is a seed that once sown never dies, but always grows and grows to an enduring and ever-increasing source of happiness. "
~ Gertrude Jekyll, Wood and Garden, 1899
" There can be no other occupation like gardening in which, if you were to creep up behind someone at their work, you would find them smiling."
