No one can estimate the power of authority among poor and uneducated people in a world whose problems confuse even the wisest.

Throughout the play everything possible was done to show the virtue, innocence and helplessness of the poor, and the abandoned cruelty, the heartless self-indulgence of the rich.

I write the big scenes first, that is, the scenes that carry the meaning of the book, the emotional experience.

Politics is like navigation in a sea without charts, and wise men live the lives of pilgrims.

The concept, the label, is perpetually hiding from us all the nature of the real.

Something you have to make...It's all work, work.

A novel should be an experience and convey an emotional truth rather than arguments.
