"A dramatic experience concerned with the mundane may inform but it cannot release; and one concerned essentially with the aesthetic politics of its creators may divert or anger, but it cannot enlighten."
Mamet, David
"A dramatist is one who believes that the pure event, an action involving human beings, is more arresting than any comment that can be made upon it."
Wilder, Thornton
"A playwright is the litmus paper of the arts. He's got to be, because if he isn't working on the same wave length as the audience, no one would know what in hell he was talking about. He is a kind of psychic journalist, even when he's great."
Miller, Arthur
"A talent for drama is not a talent for writing, but is an ability to articulate human relationships."
Vidal, Gore
"All this class of pleasures inspires me with the same nausea as I feel at the sight of rich plum-cake or sweetmeats; I prefer the driest bread of common life."
Smith, Sydney
"Drama assumes an order. If only so that it might have -- by disrupting that order -- a way of surprising."
Havel, Vaclav
"Every now and then, when you're on stage, you hear the best sound a player can hear. It's a sound you can't get in movies or in television. It is the sound of a wonderful, deep silence that means you've hit them where they live."
Winters, Shelley
"Farce is tragedy played at a thousand revolutions per minute."
Mortimer, John
"For my part, I confess I seldom listen to the players: one has so much to do, in looking about and finding out one's acquaintance, that, really, one has no time to mind the stage. One merely comes to meet one's friends, and show that one's alive."
Burney, Fanny
"Good drama must be drastic."
Schlegel, Friedrich
