"If I see an ending, I can work backward."
"We burn a hot fire here; it melts down all concealment."
"Now hell and heaven grapple on our backs and all our old pretense is ripped away. Aye, and Gods icy wind will blow."
"The structure of a play is always the story of how the birds came home to roost."
"A play is made by sensing how the forces in life simulate ignorance — you set free the concealed irony, the deadly joke."
"The theater is so endlessly fascinating because its so accidental. Its so much like life."
