Drama Special

Famous quotes containing the words drama and/or special:

    “Narrative prose is a legal wife, while drama is a posturing, boisterous, cheeky and wearisome mistress.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “In this century the writer has carried on a conversation with madness. We might almost say of the twentieth-century writer that he aspires to madness. Some have made it, of course, and they hold special places in our regard. To a writer, madness is a final distillation of self, a final editing down. It’s the drowning out of false voices.”
    —Don Delillo (b. 1926)
