“The historical reality is stronger than any aesthetics, and also stronger than the most original subject.”
“The tragic ends where play-acting begins.”
“A poet can and must invent a lot, but he cannot invent the reality core of a tragic action.”
“Don Quixote is Spanish and a Catholic; Faustus is German and a Protestant. while Hamlet is between the two, in the chasm that defined Europe’s destiny.”
