Charles H. Spurgeon once said:
An old wall is so interpenetrated--every nook, crack and
crevice--by the notorious ivy that, tho you may cut the vine at
the roots, you can never thoroughly destroy it, till the wall
itself is leveled.
Most weeds spread chiefly from their seeds, hence care should be
taken to prevent the formation of weed-seeds. The more thorough
we are in keeping out weeds, the easier our work. While we may
not hope to get rid of all weeds, we may greatly lessen their
numbers by keeping up a continual warfare against them.
