    “Be reflective ... and stay away from the theater as much as you can. Stay out of the theatrical world, out of its petty interests, its inbreeding tendencies, its stifling atmosphere, its corroding influence. Once become “theatricalized,” and you are lost, my friend; you are lost.”
    —Minnie Maddern Fiske (1865–1932)

    “It was at the time, the place, of nougats.
    There the dogwoods, the white ones and the pink ones,
    Bloomed in sheets, as they bloom, and the girl,
    A pink girl took a white dog walking.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
