    “The youth of America is their oldest tradition. It has been going on now for three hundred years.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “There has been in our time a lack of reliance on language and a lack of experimentation which are frightening to anyone who sees them as symptoms. We know the phenomenon of stage-fright: it holds the player shivering, incapable of speech or action. Perhaps there is an audience-fright which the play can feel, which leaves him with these incapacities.”
    —Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
