"I used to think that state aid to the theatre was the
solution. There should be state aid, of course, but I've grown
frightened of people who hold the money.
Bureaucrats are dangerous in any art, in any land. It
would be fine if government would put in the money and then go mind its
business. But it won't."
-Lillian Hellman
1962
