Gardening Quotes
What a man needs in gardening is a cast-iron back, with a hinge in it.
Charles Dudley Warner
Gardening is not a rational act.
Margaret Atwood
No synonym for God is so perfect as Beauty. Whether as seen carving the lines of the mountains with glaciers, or gathering matter into stars, or planning the movements of water, or gardening - still all is Beauty!
John Muir
In the world at large, people are rewarded or punished in ways that are often utterly random. In the garden, cause and effect, labor and reward, are re-coupled. Gardening makes sense in a senseless world. By extension, then, the more gardens in the world, the more justice, the more sense is created.
Andrew Weil
There is some risk to increase birth defects if you do a lot of outdoor gardening when you are pregnant. That can increase rates of toxoplasmosis.

Andrew Weil
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
I like gardening - it's a place where I find myself when I need to lose myself.
Alice Sebold
Gardening is how I relax. It's another form of creating and playing with colors.
Oscar de la Renta
I read, go for walks and I love to garden. My hands are such a mess. People think I should have movie star hands, but they're just gardening ones. Always slightly grubby and with a bit of dirt under the fingernails.
Amanda Donohoe
Gardening has just sort of grown on me. I find it therapeutic. And I like smelly things.
Clive Anderson
I love a lot of things, and I'm pretty much obsessive about most things I do, whether it be gardening, or architecture, or music. I'd be an obsessive hairdresser.
Gates McFadden
Gardening gloves are for sissies. I always have dirt under my nails.
Hilarie Burton
At home, I relax by gardening, or just pottering.
