Gardening imparts an organic perspective on the passage of time.
William Cowper
Image
Gardening is the purest of human pleasures.
Francis Bacon
Image
Gardening is not trivial. If you believe that it is, closely examine why you feel that way. You may discover that this attitude has been forced upon you by mass media and the crass culture it creates and maintains. The fact is, gardening is just the opposite - it is, or should be, a central, basic expression of human life.
Andrew Weil
Image
Gardening was something I learned in my youth when I was unhappy. I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.
Claude Monet
Image
Gardening has just sort of grown on me. I find it therapeutic. And I like smelly things.
Clive Anderson
Image
Gardening can become a spiritual exercise, teaching us discernment as we eliminate the weeds from our lives, giving what we value room to grow.
Diane Dreher
Image
Gardening is in large measure a phenomenon of attention.
Allen Lacy

Gardening gives one back a sense of proportion about everything - except itself.
May Sarton

Gardening is really an extended form of reading, of history and philosophy. The garden itself has become like writing a book. I walk around and walk around. Apparently people often see me standing there and they wave to me and I don't see them because I am reading the landscape.
Jamaica Kincaid
Image
Gardening is how I relax. It's another form of creating and playing with colors.
Oscar de la Renta
Image
Gardening is a cooperative affair. I am a part of a neighborhood in which plants, dirt, rocks and a human family participate collectively in a love affair with place.
Jim Nollman
Image
Gardening is a labour full of tranquility and satisfaction natural and instructive, and as such contributes to the most serious contemplation, experience, health and longevity.
John Evelyn
Image
Gardening has compensations out of all proportion to its goals. It is creation in the pure sense.
Phyllis McGinley
Image
Gardening as far as Gardening is Art, or entitled to that appellation, is a deviation from nature for if the true taste consists, as many hold, in banishing every appearance of Art, or any traces of the footsteps of man, it would then be no longer a Garden.
Joshua Reynolds
Image
Gardening requires lots of water... most of it in the form of perspiration.
Louise Erickson
Image
Gardening is like everything else in life, you get out of it as much as you put in. No one can make a garden by buying a few packets of seeds or doing an afternoon's weeding. You must love it, and then your love will be repaid a thousandfold, as every gardener knows.
Margery Fish
Image
Gardening gave me a way to work with silence not in silence but with silence - it was a silent creativity.
Sara Maitland
Image
Gardening is an art form, but it has lost its sense of history.
William Howard Adams
Image
Gardening symbolizes our race's primordial acceptance of a responsibility and role in rectifying the harm done to the creation through sin.
Vigen Guroian
Image
Gardening is the only unquestionably useful job.
George Bernard Shaw
Image
Gardening is the greatest tonic and therapy a human being can have. Even if you have only a tiny piece of earth, you can create something beautiful, which we all have a great need for. If we begin by respecting plants, it's inevitable we'll respect people.
Audrey Hepburn

Gardening is, apart from having children, the most rewarding thing in life
