Garden of The Gods

Famous quotes containing the words garden of, garden and/or gods:

    It gets to seem as if way back in the Garden of Eden after the Fall, Adam and Eve had begged the Lord to forgive them and He, in his boundless exasperation, had said, “All right, then. Stay. Stay in the Garden. Get civilized. Procreate. Muck it up.” And they did.
    Diane Arbus (1923–1971)

    A garden has this advantage, that it makes it indifferent where you live. A well-laid garden makes the face of the country of no account; let that be low or high, grand or mean, you have made a beautiful abode worthy of man.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Then she journeyed back to her own house
    and the gods of the world were shut in the lavatory.
    At last!
    she cried out,
    and locked the door.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
