Willa Cather

Citas

• “We come and go, but the land is always here. And the people who love it and understand it are the people who own it — for a little while.”

• “There seemed to be nothing to see; no fences, no creeks or trees, no hills or fields. If there was a road, I could not make it out in the faint starlight. There was nothing but land: not a country at all, but the material out of which countries are made.”

• “What was any art but an effort to make a sheath, a mould in which to imprison for a moment the shining, elusive element which is life itself — life hurrying past us and running away, too strong to stop, too sweet to lose?”

• “I like trees because they seem more resigned to the way they have to live than other things do.”

• “Whatever we had missed, we possessed together the precious, the incommunicable past.”
