“An actress reading a part for the first time tries many ways to say the same line before she settles into the one she believes suits the character and situation best.

—Stella Chess (20th century)
“In a drama of the highest order there is little food for censure or hatred; it teaches rather self-knowledge and self- respect.”

“A sophistical rhetorician, inebriated with the exuberance of his own verbosity, and gifted with an egotistical imagination that can at all times command an interminable and inconsistent series of arguments to malign an opponent and to glorify himself.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
