More quotes by Arthur Miller
Great stones they lay upon his chest until he plead aye or nay. They say he give them but two words. More weight, he says. And died.
Arthur Miller
After all the highways, and the trains, and the appointments, and the years, you end up worth more dead than alive.
Arthur Miller
Peace. It is a providence, and no great change we are only what we always were, but naked now.
Arthur Miller

Having gotten the benefit of seeing it done once, I wanted to work on the script, to make it sharper and more pointed.
Arthur Miller
When the guns roar, the arts die.
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
The Devil is precise the marks of his presence are definite as stone.
Arthur Miller
The closer a man approaches tragedy the more intense is his concentration of emotion upon the fixed point of his commitment, which is to say the closer he approaches what in life we call fanaticism.
Arthur Miller
...an everlasting funeral marches round your heart.
Arthur Miller
Cleave to no faith when faith brings blood.
Arthur Miller
Data is a lot like humans: It is born. Matures. Gets married to other data, divorced. Gets old. One thing that it doesn't do is die. It has to be killed.
