Weeds Quotes

Weeds are shallow rooted, suffer them now, and they'll overgrow the garden, and choke the herbs for want of husbandry Picture Quote #1

The vilest deeds like poison weeds bloom well in prison air; it is only what is good in man that wastes and withers there; pale anguish keeps the heavy gate and the warder is despair Picture Quote #1

Vile deeds like poison weeds bloom well in prison air, it is only what is good in man, that wastes and withers there Picture Quote #1

Among the weeds choking out growth and good government are the hundreds of boards, commissions, and advisory committees that have sprouted over the years. They devour time, money, and energy far beyond any real contribution they make Picture Quote #1

I wiped away the weeds and foam, and fetched my sea born treasures home; But the poor, unsightly, noisome things Had left their beauty on the shore With the sun, and the sand, and the wild uproar Picture Quote #1

A million million worlds that move in peace; A million mighty laws that never cease; and one small ant heap, hidden by small weeds, Rich with eggs, slaves and store of millet seeds. They sleep beneath the sod and trust in God Picture Quote #1

The master of the garden is the one who waters it, trims the branches, plants the seeds, and pulls the weeds. If you merely stroll through the garden, you are but an acolyte Picture Quote #1

In fierce march weather white waves break tether, and whirled together at either hand, like weeds uplifted, the tree trunks rifted in spars are drifted, like foam or sand Picture Quote #1

Happiness must be cultivated. It is like character. It is not a thing to be safely let alone for a moment, or it will run to weeds Picture Quote #1

The weeds keep multiplying in our garden, which is our mind ruled by fear. Rip them out and call them by name Picture Quote #1

Religion acts as a moral gardener, to weed out, or suppress, evil tendencies, which, like weeds and nettles, would shoot up spontaneously in the wonderful compost of the garden, if unwatched Picture Quote #1

We all have a path to take; sometimes it’s hidden under the weeds, so you might have to work a little Picture Quote #1

Garden work consists much more in uprooting weeds than in planting seed. This applies also to teaching Picture Quote #1

Running fills a need so we make fewer demands on others. Running reveals the roots of negative thinking, so the weeds can be pulled. Running reconnects the soul to the source, inspiring hope and creativity Picture Quote #1

There is no reason why you should be bored when you can be otherwise. But if you find yourself sitting in the hedgerow with nothing but weeds, there is no reason for shutting your eyes and seeing nothing, instead of finding what beauty you may in the weeds. To put it cynically, life is too short to waste it in drawing blanks. Therefore, it is up to you to find as many pictures to put on your blank pages as possible Picture Quote #1

When the young woman leans over the sky, about to water the flowers as well as the weeds, her white front splits open until her milk runs Picture Quote #1

People’s souls are like gardens. You can’t turn your back on someone because his garden’s full of weeds. You have to give him water and lots of sunshine Picture Quote #1

It’s disturbing how fast weeds take root in my garden of worthiness. They’re so hard to pull. And grow back so easily Picture Quote #1

You’re a quiet, beautiful woman in a loud, ugly place. An orchid among weeds. You define obvious Picture Quote #1

My soul, be satisfied with flowers, with fruit, with weeds even; but gather them in the one garden you may call your own Picture Quote #1

... you’re waiting because you thought it would follow, you thought there would be some logic, perhaps, something to pull it all together but here we are in the weeds again, here we are in the bowels of the thing: your world doesn’t make sense Picture Quote #1

Perennials are the ones that grow like weeds, biennials are the ones that die this year instead of next and hardy annuals are the ones that never come up at all Picture Quote #1

Everyone knows that weeds eat out the life of the garden and of the productive fields. It’s like that in the building and developing of character. No one knows our own faults and tendencies better than we do ourselves, so that it is up to each one of us to keep the weeds out, and to keep all growth vigorous and fruitful Picture Quote #1

Indeed, so deep is my pleasure in the work of the garden that, if there be a dimension after death in which grieving for the loss of the world of senses is possible, I shall grieve for no person however once agonisingly desired and passionately beloved, for no emotional adventure however uplifting, for no success however warming, no infamy however exhilarating, for nothing half so much as I shall grieve to the loss of the earth itself, the soil, the seeds, the plants, the very weeds... It is a love almost overriding my love the words that could express that love Picture Quote #1

Carbon dioxide pollution is transforming the chemistry of the ocean, rapidly making the water more acidic. In decades, rising ocean acidity may challenge life on a scale that has not occurred for tens of millions of years. So we confront an urgent choice: to move beyond fossil fuels or to risk turning the ocean into a sea of weeds Picture Quote #1

Even though flowers fall, don’t regret it. Even though weeds grow, don’t hate them. Don’t arouse the passions of attraction and repulsion, hating and loving. If only we don’t arouse the passions, the falling of flowers and the growing of weeds as they are is manifest absolute reality Picture Quote #1

People who spend a great deal of time in their gardens attest to the natural mindfulness that gardening requires. What could be more naturally mindful than weeding? It requires a great deal of sustained attention. Weeds need to be taken up with care: Pull too hard, and the weed breaks in your fingers, leaving the root to grow and spread. Different weeds need different techniques and, sometimes, tools. When we weed our gardens, we have to pay attention to where and how we walk and bend. Move too far in one direction or another, and we’ll squash growing things Picture Quote #1

Man is by definition the first and primary weed under whose influence all other weeds have evolved Picture Quote #1

My basic weeding rule: if they grow in rows they’re flowers; if they don’t they’re weeds Picture Quote #1

These are little packets of light and you need to plant them early in the year and remember to mark where they were because lots of times they look like weeds in the beginning and it’s not until later that you see how beautiful they really are Picture Quote #1
