“Love is patient. Love is kind. It does not envy. It does not boast. It is not proud. It is not rude. It is not self-seeking. It is not easily angered. It keeps no record of wrong doing. It does not delight in evil, but rejoices in the truth. It always protects, trusts, hopes, perseveres.”

What does it mean??**Quote unweeded garden,/that grows to seed.?
how does it apply to our world?
GardenersCardiff answers:
As a gardener, an unweeded garden that grows to seed means you didn’t weed the garden, so it has produced seeds and will spread more weeds. I guess you could apply it to anything where evil spreads (if you interpret the weed as evil). Ex. A bigoted grandfather that spreads his prejudices down thru the family or even on a grander scale, the rise of Hitler and his followers, or a cult leader (David Koresh comes to mind) or even Sadam Hussein. At a community level, it would be like a town allowing one porn shop and then another is added as the first one has broken the barriers that forbid them. The quote refers to where evil is allowed to flourish.

Do you know this quote?
So I found this quote a while ago, and I never really paid much mind to it, but I really kind of like it now, even though I can only remember the ending. And I’d really really love to be able to remember the beginning as well. Strange, I know.
SO anyway, I’m pretty sure the end of the quote is (or runs along these lines) “And what felt wrong we were dared to do’
I know it ends in the ‘we were dared to do’ part. And I’m like 95% positive I found it on the Quote Garden cause I love that website. So if this seems at all familiar to you could you help me out a bit?!?!
Thanks in advance to anyone that can!!! 
P.S. I’ve already tried typing this part of the quote into google and I’ve come up with less than satisfactory results, so any other suggestions would be nice

Milk commercial?
First link is to milk commercial quote below. The second link is to a twitter page where quite a few people quote part of the milk commercial. So [part of] the quote may have taken on a life of its own. The people quoting in twitter may have heard the commercial, maybe not.

Logic didn’t always rule our lives. Our decisions weren’t fueled by need, they were driven by want. We chased fun like it was a squirrel and we were greyhounds. Greyhounds in overalls with sticky fingers. Costumes, cupboards, cardboard boxes. If something felt right, we did it. If something felt wrong, we were dared to do it. The road between thought and action was short, straight and nothing but green lights. And while not everything we did when we were kids made sense, drinking milk did. And still does.

Suggestion when doing Google searches. Put the part where you know the exact sequence of words in quotes, and include other words you know (or are reasonably sure of) out of quotes. That’s how I found these web pages.

What are some quotes on loving yourself?
Please help me! My friend thinks she needs to lose weight but i am trying to tell her she is perfect but she refuses it! She keeps bringing herself down and she says that all her fat is ugly and stuff and i need some quotes on loving yourself and stuff! Thanks!
GardenersCardiff answers:
-I’m nowhere near perfect. I eat when I’m bored. I fall for boys too easily. I’m vulnerable to their lies. I’m hoping that one day someone can get to know me without getting into a long story. I live by quotes explaining exactly what I’m going through, I make excuses for everything in life. I’m not perfect and I’m glad because being perfect would be extremely boring.
-Life is 10% how you make it and 90% how you take it
-When life gives you 100 reasons to cry show life that you have 1000 reasons to smile
-If I had one gift that I could give you my friend, it would be the ability to see you as other see you because only then would you be able to know how extremely special you are.
-Your mind is your garden, your thoughts are your seeds. You can grow flowers or you can grow weeds.
-Fall in love or fall in hate. Get inspired or be depressed. Ace a test or flunk a class.Make babies or make art. Speak the truth or lie and cheat. Dance on tables or sit in the corner. Life is divine chaos. Embrace it. Forgive yourself. Breathe. And enjoy the ride.
-I’m selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control, and at times hard to handle. But, if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best
Donald asks…
I would like to find some love quotes to paint above my bed, any ideas?
I watched the Oprah show one day and she showed a bed and breakfast place that had a nice quote painted on the wall above a master bed. Do any of you have a nice quote that would be fitting for above a bed for a couple starting out in life with a new relationship? I have also seen neat ideas in Pottery Barn of painting a monogrammed type look of initals behind a master bed. Thank you.

Thomas asks…
What is a good quote about the worlds mysteries?
I need a good quote for English, and I can’t use Albert Einstien’s quotes cause they were in the example. Please help!
Best answer gets 10 points, if it helps…
GardenersCardiff answers:
——————————————————————————–
The answer is never the answer. What’s really interesting is the mystery. If you seek the mystery instead of the answer, you’ll always be seeking. I’ve never seen anybody really find the answer– they think they have, so they stop thinking. But the job is to seek mystery, evoke mystery, plant a garden in which strange plants grow and mysteries bloom. The need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer.
