The Dreams Of The Left Are Always

You Have To Have Hope. It's Irresponsible To Give False Hope, Which I Think A Lot Of Playwrights Are Guilty Of. But I Also Think It's Irresponsible To Simply Be A Nihilist, Which Quite A Lot Of Playwrights, Especially Playwrights Younger Than Me, Have Become Guilty Of.

The Dreams Of The Left Are Always Beautiful - The Imagining Of A Better World, The Damnation Of The Present One. This Faith, This Luminescent Anger - These Are Worthy Of Being Called Human. These Are The Beautiful That An Age Produces.

I Don't Know Anything About Making Movies. I'd Never Been On A Film Set. I'm Really Kind Of An Idiot When It Comes To Figuring Out Where Objects Are In Space. If They're Both Moving, I Can't Do The Math. If You Ever See Me Driving Down A Road, Go Somewhere Else Quickly.

What Makes The Voice Pathetic Is That It Doesn't Know What Kind Of People It's Reaching. Us. No One Hears It, Except Us. This Age Wanted Heroes. It Got Us Instead: Carefully Constructed, But Immobile. Subtle But, Unfit To Take Up The Burden Of The Times. It Happens. A Whole Generation Of Washouts. History Says Stand Up, And We Totter And Collapse, Weeping, Moved, But Not Sufficient.

One Wants To Move Through Life With Elegance And Grace, Blossoming Infrequently But With Exquisite Taste, And Perfect Timing, Like A Rare Bloom, A Zebra Orchid... One Wants... But One So Seldom Gets What One Wants, Does One?
