H.E. Bates

A garden was the primitive prison, till man with Promethean felicity and boldness, luckily sinned himself out of it.
Charles Lamb
It takes a while to grasp that not all failures are self-imposed, the result of ignorance, carelessness or inexperience. It takes a while to grasp that a garden isn't a testing ground for character and to stop asking, what did I do wrong? Maybe nothing.
