The good die young — but not always. The wicked prevail — but not consistently. I am confused by life, and I feel safe within the confines of the theatre. O'Neil's dramas are slapstick farces, Albee's riddles are simple explanations, Pinter's threatening and threatened anti-heroes are innocent babes — next to life and the living.
More quotes by Helen Hayes
The worst constructed play is a Bach fugue when compared to life.
Actors work and slave — and it is the color of your hair that can determine your fate in the end.
One has to grow up with good talk in order to form the habit of it.
