Sacred Gardens Quotes

― Tom Turner, British Gardens: History, philosophy and design

“If the nature of the world is revealed to man through religion, then gardens, as places for contemplation, should symbolise the perfection of nature.”
― Tom Turner, British Gardens: History, philosophy and design
