“A playwright ... is ... the litmus paper of the arts. He’s got to be, because if he isn’t working on the same wave length as the audience, no one would know what in hell he was talking about. He is a kind of psychic journalist, even when he’s great.”

The men wilted.”
—Erica Jong (b. 1942)
“Not for me the glad tidings of forthcoming salvation; everything is lost and I so want to live.”
