Genius is play, and man's capacity for achieving genius is infinite, and many may achieve genius only through play.
Remember that every man is a variation of yourself
All things lie dark in possibility.

You write a hit play the same way you write a flop

What a lonely and silly thing it is to be an Armenian writer in America.
You know the look: genius gone to pot, and ready to join the Communist Party
