People who aren't artists often feel that artists are inspired. But if you work at your art you don't have time to be inspired.

The emotions - love, mirth, the heroic, wonder, tranquility, fear, anger, sorrow, disgust - are in the audience.

Theatre takes place all the time - wherever one is - and art simply facilitates persuading one this is the case.

Ideas are one thing and what happens is another.

I can't understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I'm frightened of the old ones.

Where does beauty begin? Where does it end? Where it ends is where the artist begins.

In that case I will devote my life to beating my head against that wall.
