Well, all the plays that I

was trying to write wereplays that would grab

an audience by the

throat and not release

them, rather thanpresenting an emotion

which you could

observe and walk away

from.


24/25

Some writers matter

and some do not. Some

of our most cleverwriters dont matter.

They teach us nothing

and they don not render

ourselves coherent.

Arthur Miller was a

writer who mattered. A

lot.
