World Theater

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or theater:

    I am assured at any rate
    Man’s practically inexterminate.
    Someday I must go into that.
    There’s always been an Ararat
    Where someone someone else begat
    To start the world all over at.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    We live in a time which has created the art of the absurd. It is our art. It contains happenings, Pop art, camp, a theater of the absurd.... Do we have the art because the absurd is the patina of waste...? Or are we face to face with a desperate or most rational effort from the deepest resources of the unconscious of us all to rescue civilization from the pit and plague of its bedding?
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
