Quotations
- "I see myself writing in the tradition of Shaw and Moliere. I'm very much aware that I come from a street tradition, but my work came about because of writers I love, especially Shakespeare."
- "I've always tried to make college theater something multiracial and multicultural -- a living art form. But no one pays serious attention to black college kids who love the theater. They perform in isolated groups. In terms of craft, their work isn't seriously appraised."
- "What's painful is that all artists are part of a nonracial community. If you're good, you're good, and you should be evaluated, irrespective of race."

Famous quotes containing the word quotations:
“Reading any collection of a man’s quotations is like eating the ingredients that go into a stew instead of cooking them together in the pot. You eat all the carrots, then all the potatoes, then the meat. You won’t go away hungry, but it’s not quite satisfying. Only a biography, or autobiography, gives you the hot meal.”
—Christopher Buckley, U.S. author. A review of three books of quotations from Newt Gingrich. “Newtie’s Greatest Hits,” The New York Times Book Review (March 12, 1995)
“A book that furnishes no quotations is, me judice, no book—it is a plaything.”
—Thomas Love Peacock (1785–1866)
