Yield who will to their separation, my object in living is to unite
my avocation and my vocation as my two eyes make one in sight.
Only where love and need are one, and the work is played for mortal stakes,
Is the deed ever really done for Heaven and the future's sakes. --Robert Frost, Two Tramps in Mud Time
Give more to the soil than you take away. --Capek, A Gardener's Year

Let your intelligence begin to rule
