MAXWELL ANDERSON

There are some men who lift the age they inhabit, till all men walk on higher ground in that lifetime.

The difference between the Socialists and the Communists is that … the Communists mean it.

He was a god, such as men might be, if men were gods.

When a government takes over a people's economic life, it becomes absolute, and when it has become absolute, it destroys the arts, the minds, the liberties and the meaning of the people it governs.

If you practice an art, be proud of it and make it proud of you It may break your heart, but it will fill your heart before it breaks it; it will make you a person in your own right.

If it be necessary, in order to bring about the end of a money civilization and set up something new, healthy and strong, that we of the so-called artist class have to be submerged, let us be submerged. Down with us. A little poverty and shaking down won’t hurt us …

The essence of a tragedy, or even of a serious play, is the spiritual awakening, or regeneration, of the hero.

This liberty will look easy by and by when nobody dies to get it.
