“George, who is out somewhere there in the dark, who is good to me - whom I revile, who can keep learning the games we play as quickly as I can change them. Who can make me happy and I do not wish to be happy. And yes, I do wish to be happy. George and Martha: Sad, sad, sad. Whom I will not forgive for having come to rest; for having seen me and having said: “Yes, this will do”. Who has made the hideous, the hurting, the insulting mistake of loving… me, and must be punished for it. George and Martha… Sad, sad, sad.”
Edward Albee“If you spend a hundred bucks, or more, to go to the theatre, something should happen to you. Maybe somebody should be asking you some questions about your values, or about the way you think about things. Maybe you should come out of the theatre, something having happened to you. Maybe you should be changing, or thinking about changing. But if you just go there, and the only thing you worry about is where you left the damn car, then you wasted a hundred bucks.”

Edward Albee“I am not interested in living in a city where there isn't a production by Samuel Beckett running.”
Edward Albee“To all of you who have made my being alive so wonderful, so exciting and so full, my thanks and all my love.”
Edward Albee“Good writers define reality; bad ones merely restate it. A good writer turns fact into truth; a bad writer will, more often than not, accomplish the opposite.”
Edward Albee“In my mind, Martha, you are buried in cement right up to your neck. No… right up to your nose… that’s much quieter.”
Edward Albee“What could be worse than getting to the end of your life and realizing you hadn't lived it”
