There is a Lovable Quality About the Actual Tools.

By Gertrude Jekyll

There is a lovable quality about the actual tools.
One feels so kindly to the thing that enables the hand to obey the brain.
Moreover, one feels a good deal of respect for it;
without it, the brain and the hand would be helpless.

Words inspired by the garden are the sweetest, most beautiful words of all.
