Wendy Wasserstein
Every year I resolve to be a little less the me I know and leave a little room for the me I could be. Every year I make a note not to feel left behind by my friends and family who have managed to change far more than I.
Wendy Wasserstein
The arts reflect profoundly the most democratic credo, the belief in an individual vision or voice . . . The arts' belief in potential gives each of us -- both audience and creator -- pride in our society's ability to nurture individuals.
Wendy Wasserstein
The signature of a truly enviable woman is the tenacity and continuity of her women friends.
Wendy Wasserstein
