In garden arrangement, as in all other kinds of decorative work, one has not only to acquire a knowledge of what to do, but also to gain some wisdom in perceiving what it is well to let alone.

The idea of trying to create things that last - forever knowledge - has guided my work for a long time now.

I think all the knowledge and all the travels that I've done, I'm going to do a lot of great work in the future.

If you're a singer you lose your voice. A baseball player loses his arm. A writer gets more knowledge, and if he's good, the older he gets, the better he writes.

Wisdom we know is the knowledge of good and evil, not the strength to choose between the two.
