Tennessee Williams

I have always been pushed by the negative. The apparent failure of a play sends me back to my typewriter that very night, before the reviews are out. I am more compelled to get back to work than if I had a success.

Success is blocked by concentrating on it and planning for it... Success is shy - it won't come out while you're watching.

Life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quickly you hardly catch it going.

We are all sentenced to solitary confinement inside our own skins, for life.

To be free is to have achieved your life.
