“Some seeds need fire to sprout. What if you’re that seed?”
Diane Wilson, The Seed Keeper

“Maybe we all carry that instinct to return home, to the horizon line that formed us, to the place where we first knew the world. Maybe it was that instinct driving me now.”
Diane Wilson, The Seed Keeper

“In this world there is no death. There is only the eternal cycle of birth and rebirth moving from one body to another. Our flesh lives in the belly of a deer, in the wing of a butterfly, in every seed you plant. Our bodies nourish the roots and leaves that keep us alive. When you care for the seeds, you care for all of our ancestors. Nothing is lost. Nothing is lost.”
Diane Wilson, The Seed Keeper
