I call for actors burning at the stakes, laughing at the flames.

I prefer the people who eat off the bare earth the delirium from which they were born.

The true theater, because it moves and makes use of living instruments, continues to stir up shadows where life has never ceased to grope its way.

The theater, which is in no thing, but makes use of everything - gestures, sounds, words, screams, light, darkness - rediscovers itself at precisely the point where the mind requires a language to express its manifestations.... To break through language in order to touch life is to create or recreate the theatre.

Actors are athletes of the heart.

I call for actors burning at the stakes, laughing at the flames.

So society has strangled in its asylums all those it wanted to get rid of or protect itself from, because they refused to become its accomplices in certain great nastinesses.
