“A good play is a good thought; a great play is a great thought. A great thought is a thrust outward, a daring act. Daring is of the essence. Its very nature is incompatible with an undue affection for moderation, respectability, even fairness and responsibleness. Those qualities are proper for the inside of the telephone company, not for creative art.”

I don’t have my reading journal with me right now so pardon me if I find very much of what Arthur Miller has to say about theatre in line with what I want to remember about it. There may be several more updates tonight.
