Quotes by Julia Kelly  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I don’t know if I’m enough,” she confessed. “None of us is. I believe that Father Devlin would say that that’s why we meet so many people in our lives,” said Mrs. Symonds.”
Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England

“vibrant”
Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England

“I have never understood “gardeners” who refuse to garden because it is unseemly for a lady or gentleman to dirty their hands. Perhaps they don’t know the thrill of plunging a trowel into spring-softened soil to toss up the sweet, earthy scent of leaves and twigs and all manner of matter. By refusing to stain their aprons, they miss the sensation of damp, fresh dirt crumbling between their fingers or breathing the fresh air deeply. They don’t know the satisfaction of knocking the dust off one’s clothes when retreating into the house for a well-earned cup of tea.”
Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
