Willa Cather : (3) " A work-room should be like an old shoe; no matter how shabby, it’s better than a new one. " - Willa Cather " Winter lies too long in country towns; hangs on until it is stale and shabby, old and sullen. " - Willa Cather " To note an artist’s limitations is but to define his talent. A reporter can write equally well about everything that is presented to his view, but a creative writer can do his best only with what lies within the range and character of his deepest sympathies.
