Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

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.

If the work of art is good enough, it must not be criticized for its theme. I don't think it can be argued.

Any definition which limits us is deplorable.

True, I don't begin with an idea for a play - a thesis, in other words, to construct the play around. But I know a good deal about the nature of the characters. I know a great deal about their environment. And I more or less know what is going to happen in the play.

I have a fine sense of the ridiculous, but no sense of humor.

Art is nowhere near as dangerous as it should be.
