Here in this body are the sacred rivers: here are the sun and moon, as well as all the pilgrimage places. I have not encountered another temple as blissful as my own body.

  • Saraha

"I have found, through years of practice, that people garden in order to make something grow; to interact with nature; to share, to find sanctuary, to heal, to honor the earth, to leave a mark. Through gardening, we feel whole as we make our personal work of art upon our land."

  • Julie Moir Messervy, The Inward Garden, 1995, p.19

"I do not understand how anyone can live without one small place of enchantment to turn to."
