Willa Cather Quote

The world is little, people are little, human life is little. There is only one big thing—desire. And before it, when it is big, all is little.

The Song of the Lark (1915)

The world is little, people are little, human life is little. There is only one big thing—desire. And before it, when it is big, all is little.

The world is little, people are little, human life is little. There is only one big thing—desire. And before it, when it is big, all is little.

The world is little, people are little, human life is little. There is only one big thing—desire. And before it, when it is big, all is little.

The world is little, people are little, human life is little. There is only one big thing—desire. And before it, when it is big, all is little.
