    Love this Wilder quote, do you know what the source is?
    Was it from a play or novel of his?
    Thank you

    Steve, I am also looking for the source of this quote by Wilder. Did you ever find it? I this think it is from his play ‘Our Town’ but not sure and would love to know if that is correct and which character said it when? Thanks, Julie
