Famous quotes containing the word jarry:

    The theater, bringing impersonal masks to life, is only for those who are virile enough to create new life: either as a conflict of passions subtler than those we already know, or as a complete new character.
    —Alfred Jarry (1873–1907)

    To keep up even a worthwhile tradition means vitiating the idea behind it which must necessarily be in a constant state of evolution: it is mad to try to express new feelings in a “mummified” form.
    —Alfred Jarry (1873–1907)

    Blind and unwavering indiscipline at all times constitutes the real strength of all free men.
    —Alfred Jarry (1873–1907)
