The most important playwright's gift is to hit your time and speak to your time.

The theatre is the best way of showing the gap between what is said and what is seen to be done, and that is why, ragged and gap-toothed as it is, it has still a far healthier potential than some poorer, abandoned arts.

To those whose God is honor; only disgrace is a sin.

Via Dolorosa is the only thing I have ever acted in my life, professionally, and Ill never act again.

Smiles are the language of love.

Obviously VIA DOLOROSA is completely artificial. It is as highly wrought as any of my plays. But basically all the artifice is to disguise itself so you don't feel it's there. You're attempting to make the artifice like a pane of glass that simply leads you through to the subject - not to decorate the bloody glass.

The great mystery of adaptation is that true fidelity can only be achieved through lavish promiscuity.
