Arranging Quote by Elizabeth von Arnim

“I have been much afflicted again lately by visitors . . . and they gave me to understand that if they had had the arranging of the garden it would have been finished long ago - whereas I don't believe a garden is ever finished. They have all gone now, thank heaven.” quote by Elizabeth von Arnim — Download Open image
