Gardening Quote of the Day

"...'If you are a gardener and find me,' said the little bunny, 'I will be a bird and fly away from you.' 'If you become a bird and fly away from me,' said his mother, 'I will be a tree that you come home to.' (from The Runaway Bunny, 1942)"

(Margaret Wise Brown, American author (born 5/23/1910))
