Mystery Plays

Famous quotes containing the words mystery and/or plays:

    You do not mean by mystery what a Catholic does. You mean an interesting uncertainty: the uncertainty ceasing interest ceases also.... But a Catholic by mystery means an incomprehensible certainty: without certainty, without formulation there is no interest;... the clearer the formulation the greater the interest.
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)

    A great many quite good plays could be performed with rhythmic howls in the place of dialogue and lose almost nothing by the change.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
