"Joe, what you said about--about Jew-hater talk--I thought about it a lot, and it's not true. How could it be? It would be like hating myself...It's only ignorance. I don't know anything. There's just a big hole where Judaism is supposed to be."

"Yes, it is a rich language, Lieutenant, full of the mythologies of fantasy and hope and self-deception--a syntax opulent with tomorrows. It is our response to mud cabins and a diet of potatoes; our only method to replying to inevitabilities."
~ Hugh, Act II, Scene I Participating Actors: Britannie Bond, Natalie Hegg, Jordan Kaplan, Patricia Lynn, Matthew Ellis Murphy, Alana Rader, John Tracey |
"I've been having a tough time lately. Well, when I am not having a tough time...? With my work, I mean. I've been trying too hard. You know when everything comes out too perfect?...When result takes over intention? I'm hoping to regroup here. You know, relax a little. Take in more of the world--sandpipers, jellyfish, hermit crabs...widen my focus..."

"That night, I thought, "Who is this sleeping man next to me?"...Because I had no secrets. I had nothing extra inside of me. I had never done anything without considering him. And that's why I came here. To fill myself up. To stuff myself with whatever I want. Gorge myself until I'm ready to burst."

"You think it's me, don't you? You didn't used to think it was, but now you think it's me. You think your whole life went sour because of me. Because of Mother. Because of Beth. If only your life was free of females, then you'd be free yourself."
