More From Ethel Merman

You have to have hope. it's irresponsible to give false hope, which i think a lot of playwrights are guilty of. but i also think it's irresponsible to simply be a nihilist, which quite a lot of playwrights, especially playwrights younger than me, have become guilty of.
Thinking Giving Guilty
I'm concerned about a better world. i'm concerned about justice; i'm concerned about brotherhood; i'm concerned about truth. and when one is concerned about that, he can never advocate violence. for through violence you may murder a murderer, but you can't murder murder. through violence you may murder a liar, but you can't establish truth. through violence you may murder a hater, but you can't murder hate through violence. darkness cannot put out darkness; only light can do that.
Motivational Hate Liars
Setting aside the vast herd which shows no definable character at all, it seems to me that the minority distinguished by what is commonly regarded as an excess of sin is very much more admirable than the minority distinguished by an excess of virtue. my experience of the world has taught me that the average wine-bibbler is a far better fellow than the average prohibitionist, and that the average rogue is better company than the average poor drudge, and that the worst white-slave trader of my acquaintance is a decenter man than the best vice crusader.
Wine Character Men
I like dramas. i've always liked dramas. and i'm a pretty light person. i don't consider myself a very dramatic person. but i do like doing that onscreen.

Yes," marcus says. "i understand that you are concerned -- that you all are concerned. you had never heard of the divergent a week ago, and now all that you know is that they are immune to something to which you are susceptible, and that is a frightening thing. but i can assure you that there is nothing to be afraid of, as far as we are concerned." as he speaks, his head tilts and his eyebrows lift in sympathy, and i understand at once why some people like him. he makes you feel that if you just placed everything in his hands, he would take care of it.

Human beings suffer agonies, and their sad fates become legends; poets write verses about them and playwrights compose dramas, and the remembrance of past grief becomes a source of present pleasure - such is the strange alchemy of the spirit.

Look, we can definitively agree that cable is far superior to network. that isn't to say that there can't be a great network drama or comedy that makes 20-plus episodes a year. we know that there are, and there have been.
Drama Years Looks
Where hunters and woodcutters once slept in their boots by the dying light of their thousand fires and went on, old teutonic forebears with eyes incandesced by the visionary light of a massive rapacity, wave on wave of the violent and the insane, their brains stoked with spoorless analogues of all that was, lean aryans with their abrogate semitic chapbook reenacting the dramas and parable therein.
Drama Eye Fire
I grew up in the theatre. it's where i got my start. writing a television drama with theatrical dialogue about the theatre is beyond perfection.
Drama Writing Perfection
For me, comedy literally is way more terrifying than doing drama, so it's always about stretching what i think i can do and putting myself out there in different context.
