You Gotta Have Swine To Show You Where The Truffles Are.

In The Thirties A Whole School Of Criticism Bogged Down Intellectually In Those Agitprop, Social-realistic Days. A Play Had To Be Progressive. A Number Of Plays By Playwrights Who Were Thought Very Highly Of Then - They Were Very Bad Playwrights - Were Highly Praised Because Their Themes Were Intellectually And Politically Proper. This Intellectual Morass Is Very Dangerous, It Seems To Me. A Form Of Censorship.

Influence Is A Matter Of Selection - Both Acceptance And Rejection.

A Play Is Fiction And Fiction Is Fact Distilled Into Truth.

Martha: Truth Or Illusion, George; You Don't Know The Difference. George: No, But We Must Carry On As Though We Did. Martha: Amen.
