Authors:

And so faith is closing your eyes and following the breath of your soul down to the bottom of life, where existence and nonexistence have merged into irrelevance. All that matters is the little part you play in the vast drama. – Real Live Preacher
Drama is imagination limited by logic. Mathematics is logic limited by imagination. – Nathan Campbell
Drama is life with the dull bits cut out. – Alfred Hitchcock
Has anybody ever seen a drama critic in the daytime? Of course not. They come out after dark, up to no good. – P. G. Wodehouse
He who has never envied the vegetable has missed the human drama. – E.M. Cioran
I made some mistakes in drama. I thought the drama was when the actors cried. But drama is when the audience cries. – Frank Capra
I trained for three years at drama school to be an actor - not a celebrity. – Orlando Bloom
It is only by introducing the young to great literature, drama and music, and to the excitement of great science that we open to them the possibilities that lie within the human spirit -- enable them to see visions and dream dreams. – Eric Anderson

Life is like an overlong drama through which we sit being nagged by the vague memories of having read the reviews. – John Updike
Our nation was born in genocide when it embraced the doctrine that the original American, the Indian, was an inferior race. Even before there were large numbers of Negroes on our shore, the scar of our racial hatred had already disfigured colonial society. From the sixteenth century forward, blood flowed in battles over racial supremacy. We are perhaps the only nation which tried as a matter of national policy to wipe out its indigenous population. Moreover, we elevated that tragic experience into a noble crusade. Indeed, even today we have not permitted ourselves to reject or feel remorse for this shameful episode. Our literature, our films, our drama, our folklore all exalt it. Our children are still taught to respect the violence which reduced a red-skinned people of an earlier culture into a few fragmented groups herded into impoverished reservations. – John Kennedy, Autobiography of malcolm x
The few little years we spend on earth are only the first scene in a Divine Drama that extends into Eternity. – Edwin Markham
The island of San Domingo, situated in tropical waters, and occupied by another race, of another color, never can become a permanent possession of the United States. You may seize it by force of arms or by diplomacy, where a naval squadron does more than the minister, but the enforced jurisdiction cannot endure. Already by a higher statute is that island set apart to the colored race... I protest against this legislation as another stage in a drama of blood. I protest against it in the name down, in the name of peace imperiled, and in the name of the African race, whose first effort at independence is rudely assailed. – Charles Sumner
When I read great literature, great drama, speeches, or sermons, I feel that the human mind has not achieved anything greater than the ability to share feelings and thoughts through language. – James Earl Jones
Where there is no belief in the soul, there is very little drama . . . . Either one is serious about salvation or one is not. And it is well to realize that the maximum amount of seriousness admits the maximum amount of comedy. Only if we are secure in our beliefs can we see the comical side of the universe. – Flannery O'Connor
