Edward Hirsch on the Art of Poetry: “Writing is a bit like psychoanalysis. You’re supposed to go where it’s psychically troubling.”

Suzan-Lori Parks on the Art of Theater: “All writing, for me, is a relationship. I don’t feel like I can do whatever I want with whomever I want. It’s call-and-response.”
