John Osborne's quotes
- Some actors are little better than strolling psychopaths.
- I do not like the kind of society in which I find myself. I like it less and less. I love the theatre more and more because I know that it is what I always dreamed it might be: a weapon. I am sure that it can be one of the decisive weapons of our time.
- we need a new feeling as much as we need a new language. . . . Out of the feeling will come the language
- It's deep honesty which distinguishes a gentleman. He knows how to revel in life and have no expectations - and fear death at all times
- I have been upbraided constantly for a crude, almost animal inability to dissemble.
- To be tentative was beyond me. It usually is.
- I never had lunch in Brighton without wanting to take a woman to bed in the afternoon.
