A garden is a complex of aesthetic and plastic intentions; and the plant is, to a landscape artist, not only a plant - rare, unusual, ordinary or doomed to disappearance - but it is also a color, a shape, a volume or an arabesque in itself.

- Roberto Burle Marx

I'm a plant eater.

- Roberto Burle Marx

I did a salad, but I didn't do a garden.
