More quotes by Arthur Miller
You specialize in something until one day it is specializing in you.
Arthur Miller
I've always made a point of not wasting my life, and every time I come back here I know that all I've done is to waste my life.
Arthur Miller
There are many who stay away from church these days because you hardly ever mention God any more.
Arthur Miller
Poor brain! How helplessly it dissolves when willing eyes meet and the nose warms to those old jungle scents.
Arthur Miller
Every time I am reading actors I can pretty well tell which ones have studied with Meisner. It is because they are honest and simple and don't lay on complications that aren't necessary.
Arthur Miller
The brain heals the past like an injury.
Arthur Miller
The best of our theater is standing on tiptoe, striving to see over the shoulders of father and mother. The worst is exploiting and wallowing in the self-pity of adolescence and obsessive keyhole sexuality. The way out, as the poet says, is always through.
Arthur Miller
When the guns roar, the arts die.
Arthur Miller
He have his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!
Arthur Miller
How to live had started out as an analytical problem of how to place himself so as to intercept the flow of money in the society.
Arthur Miller
Because it is my name! Because I cannot have another in my life! Because I lie and sign myself to lies! Because I am not worth the dust on the feet of them that hang! How may I live without my name? I have given you my soul leave me my name!
Arthur Miller
Without alienation, there can be no politics.
Arthur Miller
That is a very good question. I don't know the answer. But can you tell me the name of a classical Greek shoemaker?
Arthur Miller
It is time that we, who are without kings, took up this bright thread of our history and followed it to the only place it can possibly lead in our time-the heart and spirit of the average man.
Arthur Miller
The Crucible became by far my most frequently produced play, both abroad and at home. Its meaning is somewhat different in different places and moments. I can almost tell what the political situation in a country is when the play is suddenly a hit there it is either a warning of tyranny on the way or a reminder of tyranny just past.
Arthur Miller
Everything we are is at every moment alive in us.
Arthur Miller
By whatever means it is accomplished, the prime business of a play is to arouse the passions of its audience so that by the route of passion may be opened up new relationships between a man and men, and between men and Man. Drama is akin to the other inventions of man in that it ought to help us to know more, and not merely to spend our feelings.
Arthur Miller
One had the right to write because other people needed news of the inner world, and if they went too long without such news they would go mad with the chaos of their lives.
Arthur Miller
The world is an oyster but you don't crack it open on a mattress
Arthur Miller
A character is defined by the kinds of challenges he cannot walk away from. And by those he has walked away from that cause him remorse.
Arthur Miller
