“Perhaps one of the chief distinctions between a Drama for Marionnettes and a Proper Drama is this ... that whereas a Proper Drama has to be vague and roundabout in its movements, a Marionnette Drama had always better be direct and rapid and even obvious ... A Marionnette is not at all clever -- not subtle. He must fit the characte rlike a hand fits a glove, or all is undone. Therefore when we make a character in one of our Dramas we make the Marionnette to fit it. And so it comes about that a Marionnette does not play a number of parts, he plays only one... that is himself.”
― Edward Gordon Craig

“Maybe I'm just gonna kill you," says Mike, peeved at being predictable. "You ever think of that?"

― Eoin Colfer, Screwed

“Everybody works according to his ability, some doing more, some doing less, but everyone ought to know whether he is doing good or harm.”
