Free weeds sayings, quotes and quotations
Nothing is more memorable than a smell. One scent can be unexpected, momentary and fleeting, yet conjure up a childhood summer beside a lake in the mountains; another, a moonlit beach; a third, a family dinner of pot roast and sweet potatoes during a myrtle-mad August in a Midwestern town. Smells detonate softly in our memory like poignant land mines hidden under the weedy mass of years. Hit a tripwire of smell and memories explode all at once. A complex vision leaps out of the undergrowth.
~weeds quotes by Diane Ackerman, A Natural History of the Senses
I am not a lover of lawns. Rather would I see daisies in their thousands, ground ivy, hawkweed, and even the hated plantain with tall stems, and dandelions with splendid flowers and fairy down, than the too-well-tended lawn.
~inspirational sayings about Nature quotes by W.H. Hudson, The Book of a Naturalist, 1919
Nobody seems more obsessed by diet than our anti-materialistic, otherworldly, New Age spiritual types. But if the material world is merely illusion, an honest guru should be as content with Budweiser and bratwurst as with raw carrot juice, tofu and seaweed slime.
~weeds quotes by Edward Abbey
Every time we walk along a beach some ancient urge disturbs us so that we find ourselves shedding shoes and garments or scavenging among seaweed and whitened timbers like the homesick refugees of a long war.
~famous quotes about Water by Loren Eiseley
What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered.
~weeds sayings by Ralph Waldo Emerson, Fortune of the Republic, 1878
Gardening is a kind of disease. It infects you, you cannot escape it. When you go visiting, your eyes rove about the garden; you interrupt the serious cocktail drinking because of an irresistible impulse to get up and pull a weed.
~weeds quotes by Lewis Gannit

A weed is but an unloved flower.
~famous quotes about Weeds by Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Crabgrass can grow on bowling balls in airless rooms, and there is no known way to kill it that does not involve nuclear weapons.
~weeds sayings by Dave Barry
Many gardeners will agree that hand-weeding is not the terrible drudgery that it is often made out to be. Some people find in it a kind of soothing monotony. It leaves their minds free to develop the plot for their next novel or to perfect the brilliant repartee with which they should have encountered a relative's latest example of unreasonableness.
~weeds quotes by Christopher Lloyd, The Well-Tempered Garden, 1973
Will I, succeed, paranoid from the weed and hocus pocus, try to focus but I can't see.
~inspirational sayings about Motivation quotes by Tupac Shakur
We can in fact only define a weed, mutatis mutandis, in terms of the well-known definition of dirt - as matter out of place. What we call a weed is in fact merely a plant growing where we do not want it.
~weeds quotes by E.J. Salisbury, The Living Garden, 1935
The destroyer of weeds, thistles and thorns is a benefactor, whether he soweth grain or not.
~famous quotes about Helping by Robert Ingersoll, inscription to Volume I, Collected Works
They know, they just know where to grow, how to dupe you, and how to camouflage themselves among the perfectly respectable plants, they just know, and therefore, I've concluded weeds must have brains.
~weeds sayings by Dianne Benson, Dirt, 1994
No soul is desolate as long as there is a human being for whom it can feel trust and reverence

~good sayings about Romantic Quotes by Greg Anderson
History is principally the inaccurate narration of events which ought not to have happened.
~weeds quotes by Earnest Albert Hooten, The Twilight of Man
When you do the wrong thing, knowing it is wrong, you do so because you haven't developed the habit of effectively controlling or neutralizing strong inner urges that tempt you, or because you have established the wrong habits and don't know how to eliminate them effectively.
~motivational quotes about Attitude sayings by W. Clement Stone
Success: To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!
~weeds sayings by Ralph Waldo Emerson

Middle age is the time when a man is always thinking that in a week or two he will feel as good as ever.
~good sayings about Age by Don Marquis
There's a graveyard in northern France where all the dead boys from D-Day are buried. The white crosses reach from one horizon to the other. I remember looking it over and thinking it was a forest of graves. But the rows were like this, dizzying, diagonal, perfectly straight, so after all it wasn't a forest but an orchard of graves. Nothing to do with nature, unless you count human nature.
