I like indoor Christmas trees. And I like people who decorate their homes with lights and all that crap. I think it’s a healthy outlet for them. If they weren’t covering their lawns with twinkling lights, they’d be doing something that was really, really creepy Picture Quote #1

The world has different owners at sunrise... Even your own garden does not belong to you. Rabbits and blackbirds have the lawns; a tortoise-shell cat who never appears in daytime patrols the brick walls, and a golden-tailed pheasant glints his way through the iris spears Picture Quote #1

We pretend to be a middle class, democratic nation, but in reality we love our blue bloods. ... We love the prep school manners, the aristocratic calm, the Skull and Bones mystery, the dappled lawns stretching before New England summer homes. How else can you explain the Bush vs. Kerry match-up that confronts us this year Picture Quote #1

We must plant trees, grow gardens instead of lawns, ride bicycles when we can and support responsible local businesses over big brands Picture Quote #1

In Austin, the eco-capital of Texas, residents tend to favor native plants and wildflowers to the sculpted lawns of the Palm Springs variety Picture Quote #1

The picture of Mother Teresa that I remember from my childhood is of a short, sari-wearing woman scurrying down a red gravel path between manicured lawns. She would have in tow one or two slower-footed, sari-clad young Indian nuns. We thought her a freak. Probably wed picked up on unvoiced opinions of our Loreto nuns Picture Quote #1

There, interspersed in lawns and opening glades, thin trees arise, that shun each other’s shade Picture Quote #1

Our lawns manifest our cultural desire: they are static, they are artificial, and they are kept sexually immature Picture Quote #1

The purple heath and golden broom On moory mountains catch the gale, over lawns the lily sheds perfume, the violet in the vale Picture Quote #1

Her voice was sweet, and reminded him of elms, of lawns, of those glass arrangements that used to be hung from porch ceilings to tinkle in the summer wind Picture Quote #1

My men, like satyrs grazing on the lawns, shall with their goat feet dance an antic hay Picture Quote #1

Her eye fell everywhere on lawns and plantations of the freshest green; and the trees, though not fully clothed, were in that delightful state when farther beauty is known to be at hand, and when, while much is actually given to the sight, more yet remains for the imagination Picture Quote #1

Comfort has its place, but it seems rude to visit another country dressed as if you’ve come to mow its lawns Picture Quote #1

Hope and the future for me are not in lawns and cultivated fields, not in towns and cities, but in the impervious and quaking swamps Picture Quote #1

I just listened to the music, and breathed in the day, and remembered things. Things like walking around the neighborhood and looking at the houses and the lawns and the colorful trees and having that be enough Picture Quote #1

Some ideas, like dandelions in lawns, strike tenaciously: you may pull off the top but the root remains, drives down suckers and may even sprout again Picture Quote #1

Our shipment of mowers was lost at sea and while we waited, winter descended and covered our green lawns with snow. That taught me a key lesson, the importance of timing. The shipping company lost the lawnmowers! By the time they showed up no one wanted them, as you can’t cut grass when it’s covered with snow Picture Quote #1
