I usually think about a play anywhere from six months to a year and a half before I sit down to write it out.

Musical beds is the faculty sport around here.

What people really want in the theater is fantasy involvement and not reality involvement.

It always seems to me better to slough off the answer to a question that I consider to be a terrible invasion of privacy - the kind of privacy that a writer must keep for himself.

Do you know what a playwright is? A playwright is someone who lets his guts hang out on the stage.

When a critic sets himself up as an arbiter of morality, a judge of the matter and not the manner of a work, he is no longer a critic; he is a censor.

Im not suggesting that the play is without fault; all of my plays are imperfect, Im rather happy to say-it leaves me something to do.
