Gertrude Jekyll, like Monet, was a painter with poor eyesight, and their gardens - his at Giverny in the Seine valley, hers in Surrey - had resemblances that may have sprung from this condition.

(Quote by - Eleanor Perenyi)

Reality is the name we give to our disappointments. (Quote by - Mason Cooley)

I feel not unlike a small boy, waking from a bad dream to find reality not much of an improvement. (Quote by - John Byrne)
