Home Quotes & Sayings Willa Cather Quotes (About Imagination & Visualization)

Willa Cather Quotes: She lent herself to immemorial human attitudes which…

("My Antonia")

More Quotes from Willa Cather:

Most of the basic material a writer works with is acquired before the age of fifteen.
Willa Cather

Willa Cather

If youth did not matter so much to itself it would never have the heart to go on
Willa Cather

Sometimes I wonder why God ever trusts talent in the hands of women, they usually make such an infernal mess of it. I think He must do it as a sort of ghastly joke.
Willa Cather

Antonia came in and stood before me...It was a shock, of course. It always is, to meet people after long years, especially if they have lived as much and as hard as this woman had.

She was there in the full vigour of her personality, battered, but not diminished...
Willa Cather

What was any art but an effort to make a sheath, a mold in which to imprison for a moment the shining, elusive element which is life itself.
Willa Cather
