"We are suffocated by writers who want to enlighten us with their truths. For me, the theatre is beautiful because it is a secret, and secrets seduce us, we all want to share secrets."
Secrets
"When I write, I am not giving a lecture, I am speculating on behavior. Sometimes this is dangerous, but it should be. As I say often, theatre is a dark place and we should keep the light out of it."
Behavior
"I submit all my plays to the National Theatre for rejection. To assure myself I am seeing clearly."
Rejection
"I never 'say' anything in my work. I invent a world. Let others decide what is being 'said'."
Work
"I am so far as I am aware not at all influenced by dramatists, expect for Shakespeare, who I have to say, it is impossible not to be influenced by if you hold language to be the major element of theatre."
Language
"I have plenty of political views and plenty of social and personal prejudices. I do not, however, value them."
Values
More
"Journalists belong in the gutter because that is where the ruling classes throw their guilty secrets."

"Sometimes, some rare times, a secret stays undiscovered because it is something too big for the mind to hold. It is too strange, too vast, too terrifying to contemplate. All of us have secrets in our lives. We're keepers or kept from, players or played."
