Everybody wants to identify things about a poet or about a playwright. They want to codify something or put it in terms that can be understood.

I give talks to theater arts departments, and I don’t know what I’ll say. I don’t plan a thing. It’s just the energy of these young people. They’re the next generation, and what they have is very representative of how I felt when I was 19 or 20 or so. I’m really happy to be with them. – Anthony Zerbe
