Quotes by James Kirkwood Jr. (?)

“I switched to thoughts of the play. It was by far the healthiest item to concentrate on. Rehearsals were only days away; there is something wildly exciting about a company assembling for the first time on stage. There is also something strangely sexy about it. I can't pin it down, there just is.”
― James Kirkwood, P.S. Your Cat Is Dead
