Famous quotes containing the words harris and/or theater:

    A cynic is not merely one who reads bitter lessons from the past; he is one who is prematurely disappointed in the future.
    —Sydney J. Harris (b. 1917)

    We live in a time which has created the art of the absurd. It is our art. It contains happenings, Pop art, camp, a theater of the absurd.... Do we have the art because the absurd is the patina of waste...? Or are we face to face with a desperate or most rational effort from the deepest resources of the unconscious of us all to rescue civilization from the pit and plague of its bedding?
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
