I Wanted To See What Was There For Me Once, What Is There For Me Now.

If You Believe, As The Greeks Did, That Man Is At The Mercy Of The Gods, Then You Write Tragedy. The End Is Inevitable From The Beginning. But If You Believe That Man Can Solve His Own Problems And Is At Nobody's Mercy, Then You Will Probably Write Melodrama.

I Am Suspicious Of Guilt In Myself And In Other People; It Is Usually A Way Of Not Thinking, Or Of Announcing One's Own Fine Sensibilities The Better To Be Rid Of Them Fast.

I've Always Had Great Satisfaction Out Of Writing The Plays. I've Not Always Had Great Satisfaction Out Of Seeing Them Produced-although Often I've Had Satisfaction There. When Things Go Well In Production, On Opening There's No Nicer Feeling In The World-what Could Be Nicer Than Watching An Audience Respond? You Can't That From A Book. It's A Fine Feeling To Walk Into The Theater And See Living People Respond To Something You've Done.
