We take the side of science in spite of the patent absurdity of some of its constructs, in spite of its failure to fulfill many of its extravagant promises of health and life, in spite of the tolerance of the scientific community for unsubstantiated just-so stories, because we have a prior commitment, a commitment to materialism... We cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door.

Theatre remains the only thing I understand. It is in the community of theatre that I have my being.

It is the life I love.

Naming things, breaking through taboos and denial is the most dangerous, terrifying, and crucial work.

I believe freedom begins with naming things. Humanity is preserved by it.
