Brooks Atkinson Quotes

«After each war there is a little less democracy to save.»
«Nothing a man writes can please him as profoundly as something he does with his back, shoulders and hands. For writing is an artificial activity. It is a lonely and private substitute for conversation.»
«I have no objections to churches so long as they do not interfere with God's work»
«Every man with an idea has at least two or three followers»
«There is no joy so great as that of reporting that a good play has come to town.»
«The Blonde in the Thunderbird»

What the reader hungers after is not accomplished craftsmanship nor even correct grammar but a frank report of the things a writer has done, seen, and thought. None of these can be learned in the library or classroom. They have to be learned in the unsheltered world of living where me get slivers of the truth beaten into their heads.»
«When Mr. Wilbur calls his play 'Halfway to Hell,' he underestimates the distance.»
«Good plays drive bad playgoers crazy.»
