Infinitely delicate and infinitely expensive.”

“Mind not the old man beseeching the young man;
Let not the childs voice be heard, nor the mothers entreaties;
Make even the trestles to shake the dead, where they lie awaiting
the hearses,
So strong you thump, O terrible drumsso loud you bugles blow.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
“To save the theatre, the theatre must be destroyed, the actors and actresses must all die of the plague. They poison the air, they make art impossible. It is not drama that they play, but pieces for the theatre. We should return to the Greeks, play in the open air; the drama dies of stalls and boxes and evening dress, and people who come to digest their dinner.”
—Eleonora Duse (18591924)
