It's the flock, the grove, that matters. Our responsibility is to species, not to specimens; to communities, not to individuals.

I appreciate the misunderstanding I have had with Nature over my perennial border. I think it is a flower garden; she thinks it is a meadow lacking grass, and tries to correct the error.

A weed is a plant that is not only in the wrong place, but intends to stay.

A digging fork is a stout, short-handled tool with four flat tines about a foot long.... for weeding I use it delicately to nudge the soil loose from roots without breaking them.

I love the longueurs of a book even if they seem pointless because you can get a peek into the author’s mind, a glimpse of their creative soul.

Happiness is achieved by flowing with the known and the unknown within you, being in a state of simplified simplicity.

I have learned to live with it all... whatever happens ... all of it.

I don't spend much time regretting the past, once I've taken my lesson from it. I don't dwell on it.

Even my momma asked what I'mma do. Decisions, decisions/ In case this is war, then I load up on all ammunition/ If a n----a want problems, my trigger's on auto.

I'm very frustrated by fear of imagination. I don't think that's healthy.

You never quite know where your emotions will take you.

You'd commit suicide trying to read my mind

It's a long road when you face the world alone, when no one reaches out a hand for you to hold. You can find love if you search within your soul, and the emptiness you felt will disappear.
