Gardening Quote by Robert J. Crane
““A plant cannot grow without rain – and rain does not come but through a storm - the mildest shower to the most tempestuous thunderstorm. And so it is with us. We grow in times of trial, in storm and rain. I do not think anyone loves the storms of life.” The paladin's face grew serious. “They sweep us to and fro – off the course we had planned for ourselves.””
