Nature does not complete things. She is chaotic. Man must finish, and he does so by making a garden and building a wall. -- Robert Frost
If you observe a really happy man you will find him building a boat, writing a symphony, educating his son, growing Double Dahlias in his garden. -- David W. Wolfe
