“Everytime I plant a seed, he say kill it before it grow, he say kill it before they grow.”
Blessings (1998)
Context: When I listen to love, I am listening to my true nature. When I express love, I am expressing my true nature. All of us love. All of us do it more and more perfectly. The past has brought us both ashes and diamonds. In the present we find the flowers of what we've planted and the seeds of what we are becoming. I plant the seeds of love in my heart. I plant the seeds of love in the hearts of others.
“I carry the seeds of death within me and plant them wherever I linger long enough to love.”

“The Spiral Dance is a seed planted twenty years ago.”
Bodhi Tree lecture (1999)
Context: The Spiral Dance is a seed planted twenty years ago. Over the last two decades, the goddess movement has grown from many seeds like a garden of long-life flowers and healing herbs. It's a big garden — I've tended only one corner of it.
“Plant lots and lots of seeds and hopefully one will grow!”
