WEEDS AND NETTLES, BRIARS AND THORNS, HAVE THRIVEN UNDER YOUR SHADOW, DISSETTLEMENT AND DIVISION, DISCONTENTMENT AND DISSATISFACTION, TOGETHER WITH REAL DANGERS TO THE WHOLE.
Oliver Cromwell
Image
Weeds play an important part in building soil fertility and in balancing the biological community . . .

Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them.
A. A. Milne
Image
Weeds are omnipresent errors are to be found in the heart of the most lovable.
George Sand

Weeds don't need planting in well-drained soil they don't ask for fertilizer or bits of rag to scare away the birds. They come without invitation and they don't take the hint when you want them to go. Weeds are nobody's guests: More like squatters.
Norman Nicholson

Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilized by education they grow firm there, firm as weeds among stones.
Charlotte Bronte

Removing the weeds, putting fresh soil about the bean stems, and encouraging this weed which I had sown, making the yellow soil express its summer thought in bean leaves and blossoms rather than in wormwood and piper and millet grass, making the earth say beans instead of grass, - this was my daily work.
Henry David Thoreau
Image
You cannot play with the animal in you without becoming wholly animal, play with falsehood without forfeiting your right to truth, play with cruelty without losing your sensitivity of mind. He who wants to keep his garden tidy does not reserve a plot for weeds
Dag Hammarskjold
Image
The fuel of the future is going to come from fruit like that sumach out by the road, or from apples, weeds, sawdust - almost anything.
Henry Ford

My basic weeding rule: if they grow in rows they're flowers if they don't they're weeds.
David Hobson

Pulling weeds and planting seeds. That's the story of life. We are individual lots on which either weeds of selfishness or fruit of the Holy Spirit grows and flourishes.
Dennis Rainey
Image
In my mind's eye Shakespeare is a huge, hot sea-beast, with fire in his veins and ice on his claws and inscrutable eyes, who looks like an inchoate hump under the encrustations of live barnacle-commentaries, limpets and trailing weeds.
A. S. Byatt
Image
Yet, though it is like this, simply, flowers fall amid our longing and weeds spring up amid our antipathy.
Dogen
Image
Like all real treasures of the mind, perception can be split into infinitely small fractions without losing its quality. The weeds in a city lot convey the same lesson as the redwoods the farmer may see in his cow-pasture what may not be vouchsafed to the scientist adventuring in the South Seas.
Aldo Leopold
Image
My soul, be satisfied with flowers, with fruit, with weeds even but gather them in the one garden you may call your own.
Edmond Rostand
Image
I think being on Weeds, in general, makes it hard to think of me as Nemo anymore.
Alexander Gould
Image
If you don't love life you can't enjoy an oyster there is a shock of freshness to it and intimations of the ages of man, some piercing intuition of the sea and all its weeds and breezes. [They] shiver you for a split second.
Eleanor Clark
Image
In words, like weeds, I'll wrap me o'er, Like coarsest clothes against the cold

As is the garden such is the gardener. A man's nature runs either to herbs or weeds.
