Here are a few quotes by Willa Cather:
1. ”The heart of another is a dark forest, always, no matter how close it has been to one’s own.”
2. ”Where there is great love, there are always miracles.”
3. ”I like trees because they seem more resigned to the way they have to live than other things do.”
4. ”Some memories are realities, and are better than anything that can ever happen to one again.”
5. ”The thing that teases the mind over and over for years, and at last gets itself put down rightly on paper—whether little or great, it belongs to Literature.”
6. ”There are some things you learn best in calm, and some in storm.”
7. ”Artistic growth is, more than it is anything else, a refining of the sense of truthfulness.”
8. ”The dead might as well try to speak to the living as the old to the young.”
9. ”The world is little, people are little, human life is little. There is only one big thing — desire.”
10. ”The miracles of the church seem to me to rest not so much upon faces or voices or healing power coming suddenly near to us from afar off, but upon our perceptions being made finer, so that for a moment our eyes can see and our ears can hear what is there about us always.”
These quotes give a glimpse into Cather’s insightful and poetic style of writing.
