My professor:
"We want to be reaffirmed in theatre."
"There is something called genius that DOES exist."
"Art starts from chaos."
"Your voice internally is speaking in tongues. Even your own writing is a translation."
"To leave out the contradictions is bad theatre."
Classmate Wagon:
"For all change to occur, you need an impetus."
It should be noted that my prof is from Germany. She has a thick accent and frequently discussed her friendships with people like Tony Kushner and August Wilson. She was quoted in our theatre history textbook. She's so brilliant, I often forget she's speaking a secondary language in a secondary home. But then:
PROF: So...you all [Americans] become the...tossed salad...or...
CLASSMATE: ...Melting pot?
PROF: Whatever you are now.
