In the end I think theatre has only one subject: justice

The human mind is a dramatic structure in itself and our society is absolutely saturated with drama

It's insulting to ask a dramatist what his view of his play is. I have no opinion

I write about violence as naturally as Jane Austen wrote about manners. Violence shapes and obsesses our society, and if we do not stop being violent we have no future.

The truth has got to appear plausible on the stage
