—Joseph Epstein (b. 1937)
“... the modern drama, operating through the double channel of dramatist and interpreter, affecting as it does both mind and heart, is the strongest force in developing social discontent, swelling the powerful tide of unrest that sweeps onward and over the dam of ignorance, prejudice, and superstition.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress.”
