Citations

“It’s a strange moment, the moment of creating characters who up to that moment have had no existence. What follows is fitful, uncertain, even hallucinatory, although sometimes it can be an unstoppable avalanche. The author’s position is an odd one. In a sense he is not welcomed by his characters. They resist him, they are not easy to live with.”
Art, Truth & PoliticsEn anglais
“There are no hard distinctions between what is real and what is unreal, nor between what is true and what is false. A thing is not necessarily either true or false; it can be both true and false.”
Writing for the TheatreEn anglais
“Each play was, for me, ‘a different kind of failure.’ And that fact, I suppose, sent me on to write the next one.”
Writing for the TheatreEn anglais
“Apart from the known and the unknown, what else is there?”
