"I know no other way to associate..." - Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche

“It is the evening that questions thus from within me.”

“Knowing things halfway is a greater success than knowing things completely: it takes things to be simpler than they really are andso makes its opinions more easily understandable and persuasive.”

“Brave people may be persuaded to an action by representing it as being more dangerous than it really is.”

“And Marlowe, Webster, Fletcher, Ben, Whose fire-hearts sowed our furrows when The world was worthy of such men.”

“You can only become great at something you are willing to sacrifice for”

“Doing what needs to be done may not make you happy, but it will make you great.”

“Don't do anything that isn't play”

“It just happened that we did [Fences] seven years ago on Broadway. Scott Rudin brought me August Wilson's original screenplay for it, and I realized I hadn't read the play. So I read it. Then I realized that Troy (my character) was 53 - and I was 55 at the time. I realized I better hurry up! I might be too old!”

“Play is the royal road to childhood happiness and adult brilliance.”
