More quotes by Robin Lane Fox
Gardeners work with an ever-receding ideal of perfection no sooner is something growing well than they see how to place it better or give it a better neighbor. To other's eyes, all may look as well as could be expected, but a good gardener's eye sees more to be improved.
Robin Lane Fox
Alexander was not the first Greek to be honoured as a god for political favour.
