More quotes by Tracy Letts
I don't know what it says about me that I have a greater affinity with the damaged. Probably nothing good.
Tracy Letts
Women are beautiful when they're young, and not after. Men can still preserve their sex appeal well into old age.... Some men can maintain, if they embrace it ... cragginess, weary masculinity. Women just get old and fat and wrinkly.
Tracy Letts
After the success of 'August,' there were people saying I should change my life. And maybe I should have bought a yacht and traveled the world instead of returning to Steppenwolf to act in and write plays. But I'm from the Midwest, and that's what we do: We go back to work.
Tracy Letts
I never know what the hell I'm writing about, I never know what the next thing I'm writing about is, I never have a plan.
Tracy Letts
Thank God we can't tell the future. We'd never get out of bed.
Tracy Letts

Tracy Letts
