Famous quotes containing the words japanese and/or drama:

    “The Japanese say, “If the flower is to be beautiful, it must be cultivated.””
    —Lester Cole, U.S. screenwriter, Nathaniel Curtis, and Frank Lloyd. Nick Condon (James Cagney)

    “If melodrama is the quintessence of drama, farce is the quintessence of theatre. Melodrama is written. A moving image of the world is provided by a writer. Farce is acted. The writer’s contribution seems not only absorbed but translated.... One cannot imagine melodrama being improvised. The improvised drama was pre-eminently farce.”
    —Eric Bentley (b. 1916)
