"It is amazing and frightening how completely one's whole being becomes absorbed in the making of a play. It is almost as if you were frantically constructing another world while the world you live in dissolves beneath your feet, and that your survival depends on completing this construction at least one second before the old habitation collapses."
Tennessee Williams

That sums it up so perfectly. Williams is at the top of my 'if they weren't gay and dead I'd totally run away to Vegas and elope with them' list. He is a poet. Like Scott Fitzgerald. I am jealous.

lovelove,
