What I mean by an educated taste is someone who has the same tastes that I have.

There are two things that a playwright can have. Success or failure. I imagine there are dangers in both. Certainly the danger of being faced with indifference or hostility is discouraging, and it may be that success - acceptance if it's too quick, too lightning-quick - can turn the heads of some people.

I think you remember everything ... you just can't bring it to mind all the time.

I don't set out to write a play a year. Sometimes I've written two plays a year. There was a period of a year and half when I only wrote half a play. If it depresses some critics that I seem prolific, well, that's their problem as much as mine.

I imagine as an axiom you could say that the better the play, the less "creativity" the director need exert.

Art should never try to be popular.

Every monster was a man first.
