Between our birth and death we may touch understanding, As a moth brushes a window with its wing. Coffee in England is just toasted milk.Comedy is an escape, not from truth but from despair; a narrow escape into faith. Has made an honest woman of the supernatural.
I want to look at life - at the commonplaces of existence - as if we had just turned a corner and run into it for the first time.In my plays I want to look at life - at the commonplace of existence-as if we had just turned a corner and run into it for the first time.In tragedy every moment is eternity; in comedy, eternity is a moment.
