"My silence knot is tied up in my hair; as if to keep my love out of my eyes. I cannot speak to one for whom i care. A hatpin serves as part of my disguise. In the play, my role is baticeer; a word which here means "person who trains bats." The audience may feel a prick of fear, as if sharp pins are hidden in thier hats. My co-star lives on what we call a brae. His solitude might not be just an act. A piece of mail fails to arrive one day. This poignant melodrama's based on fact.The curtain falls just as the knot unties; the silence is broken by the one who dies."

"But how can the characters in a play guess the plot? We are not the playwright, we are not the producer, we are not even the audience. We are on the stage. To play well the scenes in which we are "on" concerns us much more than to guess about the scenes that follow it."

"I feel sorry and for the both characters the drama for the girl, which was unknown was one very big, for the father who knows what has happened to him... I try to explore him little deeper, but so far to go in the darker without a light...!?"

"Exaggerating Your Gestures"Have you ever walked through a door and been jumped on by an over-enthusiastic dog with big paws who practically knocked you down? Some people have that effect. Being too flamboyant and over-boisterous can be overkill and push people away. Drama queens and kings have mastered these exaggerations, much to the chagrin of their observers. Remaining intentional in your gestures is a mark of poise, elegance, and maturity."

"Having second thoughts? Puck's voice was soft and dangerous, a far cry from his normal flippancy. "I thought we put this behind us for now."Never, I said, matching his stare. "I can't ever take it back, Goodfellow. I'm still going to kill you. I swore to her I would. Lighting flickered overhead, and thunder rumbled in the distance as we faced each other with narrowed eyes. "One day, I said softly. "One day you'll look up, and I'll be there. That's the only ending for us. Don't ever forget."

"Wyatt Christiansen is the client." Iris tensed at his words. Hearing Wyatt's name from her boss completely threw her off balance. If Wyatt wanted to hire Red Stone that meant he needed extra security. She hated the thought of him in danger. Without giving her a chance to respond, Harrison barreled on. "I don't like the idea of you guarding him, especially since I found out you two are fucking married. It goes against protocol, but...my father owes him a favor and he's apparently collecting."

"A play is fiction - and fiction is fact distilled into truth."

"The difference between critics and audiences is that one is a group of humans and one is not."
Audience
"Remember one thing about democracy. We can have anything we want and at the same time, we always end up with exactly what we deserve."
Time
"I have a fine sense of the ridiculous, but no sense of humor."
Humor
"Good writers define reality; bad ones merely restate it. A good writer turns fact into truth; a bad writer will, more often than not, accomplish the opposite."
Truth
"American critics are like American universities. They both have dull and half-dead faculties."

"Sometimes it's necessary to go a long distance out of the way in order to come back a short distance correctly."

"Your source material is the people you know, not those you don't know, but every character is an extension of the author's own personality."
People
"One must let the play happen to one; one must let the mind loose to respond as it will, to receive impressions, to sense rather than know, to gather rather than immediately understand."
