Purity is the feminine, truth the masculine of honor.

Some people carry their heart in their head and some carry their head in their heart. The trick is to keep them apart yet working together.

To those whose God is honor; only disgrace is a sin.

Thought is the wind and knowledge the sail.

that the erotic charge is very important in his writing. It really doesn't matter whether he was gay or not, which is a rather arid argument, but what's more important is that he wrote in an openly sexual way. And sex is a vital part of his romanticism.

Not only has Harold Pinter written some of the outstanding plays of his time, he has also blown fresh air into the musty attic of conventional English literature, by insisting that everything he does has a public and political dimension,

I couldn't be happier. This is a brilliant choice.

[Mr. Stoppard said yesterday the award was] wholly deserved and I'm completely thrilled. ... has blown fresh air into the musty attic of conventional English literature, by insisting that everything he does has a public and political dimension.

He's been both an example and an inspiration to us all.

The thing about Shakespeare is, whatever his politics were, the one thing he wasn't was an anarchist. He believes there's something called power, and he believes that somebody has to take it. And that you can't pretend power doesn't exist. And to me, Bush is a person who understands American power, and what it can do.

In the London production, Powell was represented much more, if you like, as a hero. I admire him as a man who understands what collateral damage is, who understands what a military operation is, and who knows what it's like to see people's lives destroyed by bombs. On the other hand, a number of people who saw the play in London, who were as they say, 'close,' did say, 'You've taken too benign a view of Powell.' And in this production in New York, I've toughened up the writing about Powell. I've come to believe that 'conflicted' would be a very polite word for his UN presentation.

The silence between us was profound. I thought it was his job to say something. Only now do I understand it was mine.

The theatre is the best way of showing the gap between what is said and what is seen to be done, and that is why, ragged and gap-toothed as it is, it has still a far healthier potential than some poorer, abandoned arts.

When they speak, dead frogs fall out of their mouths.
