Famous quotes containing the word garden:
“When I go into my garden with a spade, and dig a bed, I feel such an exhilaration and health, that I discover that I have been defrauding myself all this time in letting others do for me what I should have done with my own hands.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
