Famous quotes containing the word drama:

    Only in the problem play is there any real drama, because drama is no mere setting up of the camera to nature: it is the presentation in parable of the conflict between Man’s will and his environment: in a word, of problem.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    War is the supreme drama of a completely mechanized society.
    Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
