"I am incapable of devoting myself quietly to creative
work while blood is flowing and everything is calling me to battle. I want
to burn with the spirit of the times. I want all servants of the stage to
recognize their lofty destiny.
I
am disturbed at my comrades' failure to raise above narrow caste interests
which are alien to the interests of society at large. Yes, the theatre can play an enormous part in the
transformation of the whole of existence."
-Vsevolod Meyerhold
1901
