Everybody thinks the grass is greener on the other side. If you talk to most artists, they think they can play something, you know, "If I had stayed playing football in high school, if I had been doing basketball..." Everybody's got their fantasies and thinks the grass is greener. It's not. It's not.

Ice Cube

Ekaterina Sedia

The grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence. The grass is greenest where it is watered.

Robert Fulghum

The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the fence. No, not at all. Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest where it is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the grass wherever you may be.

Robert Fulghum

When it comes to your marriage, if the grass looks greener somewhere else, it's time to water your own yard!

Craig Groeschel

Ezra Taft Benson

The grass is always greener on the other side, unless Vince Russo has been there in which case the grass is most likely dead.

Jim Cornette

The grass is not always greener on the other side. It is about recognising what you do have and being grateful for what you do have.

Kasper Schmeichel

We can better see what we don't have. The other man's grass is always greener and now we can actually go and visit his grass much more and feel the absence of green in our own lives.

Pico Iyer

You work on it. You talk about it. You don't go out looking for greener grass; sometimes you have to water the grass that you have. And that's what marriage is. Sometimes it can be hard.
