Seed Quotes


It is the writer who might catch the imagination of young people, and plant a seed that will flower and come to fruition.
Isaac Asimov

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven; A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.
Ecclesiastes 3:1,2,4

The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Love is the seed of all hope. It is the enticement to trust, to risk, to try, to go on.
Gloria Gaither

When you plant lettuce, if it does not grow well, you don’t blame the lettuce. You look for reasons it is not doing well. It may need fertilizer, or more water, or less sun. You never blame the lettuce. Yet if we have problems with our friends or family, we blame the other person. But if we know how to take care of them, they will grow well, like the lettuce. Blaming has no positive effect at all, nor does trying to persuade using reason and argument. That is my experience. No blame, no reasoning, no argument, just understanding. If you understand, and you show that you understand, you can love, and the situation will change.
Thich Nhat Hanh

Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit.
Napoleon Hill

The heart is like a garden. It can grow compassion or fear, resentment or love. What seeds will you plant there?
Jack Kornfield

If we make our goal to live a life of compassion and unconditional love, then the world will indeed become a garden where all kinds of flowers can bloom and grow.
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

Nothing fruitful ever comes when plants are forced to flower in the wrong season.
Bette Bao Lord

Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree.
Martin Luther

Of all the wonderful things in the wonderful universe of God, nothing seems to me more surprising than the planting of a seed in the blank earth and the result thereof.
Julie Moir Messervy

Every thought is a seed. If you plant crab apples, don’t count on harvesting Golden Delicious.
Bill Meyer

Nature herself does not distinguish between what seed it receives. It grows whatever seed is planted; this is the way life works. Be mindful of the seeds you plant today, as they will become the crop you harvest.
Mary Morrissey

Gardening is the art that uses flowers and plants as paint, and the soil and sky as canvas.
Elizabeth Murray

Every problem has in it the seeds of its own solution. If you don't have any problems, you don't get any seeds.
Norman Vincent Peale

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.
Marcel Proust

To bury grief, plant a seed.
German proverb

A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.
Greek Proverb

All the flowers of all the tomorrows are in the seeds of today.
Swedish Proverb

Plant the seeds of your dreams and weed all the objections out.
Mary Anne Radmacher

Every leaf that grows will tell you: what you sow will bear fruit, so if you have any sense my friend, don’t plant anything but Love.
Rumi

Yesterday is gone and its tale told. Today new seeds are growing.
Rumi

An ordinary favor we do for someone or any compassionate reaching out may seem to be going nowhere at first, but may be planting a seed we can't see right now. Sometimes we need to just do the best we can and then trust in an unfolding we can't design or ordain.
Sharon Salzberg

Help us to be ever faithful gardeners of the spirit, who know that without darkness nothing comes to birth, and without light nothing flowers.
May Sarton

Any fool can count the seeds in an apple. Only God can count all the apples in one seed.
Robert H. Schuller

Life does not accommodate you; it shatters you. Every seed destroys its container, or else there would be no fruition.
Florida Scott-Maxwell

Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.
Robert Louis Stevenson

Anyone can cut an apple open and count the number of seeds. But, who can look at a single seed and count the trees and apples?
Dottie Walters

The greater part of our happiness or misery depends on our disposition, and not our circumstances. We carry the seeds of the one or the other about with us in our minds wherever we go.
Martha Washington

My mind is a garden. My thoughts are the seeds. My harvest will be either flower or weeds.
Mel Weldon

The light of unconditional love awakens the dormant seed potentials of the soul.
John Welwood
