My passion for gardening may strike some as selfish or merely an act of resignation in the face of overwhelming problems that beset the world. It is neither. I have found that each garden is just what Voltaire proposed in Candide: a microcosm of a just and beautiful society.

I loathe gardening but I love gardens and I have two beautiful gardens. I can not bear gardening but I love gardens.

Why fear death? It is the most beautiful adventure in life.
