"The romantics offend this theatre without images. To prefer the narrative to the stage exhibition of the great murders and the great wonders, they believe that it is to flee the difficulty: it is to seek it, on the contrary, since it is to refuse the help of the physical and the sensitive, the director and the machinist, the lights, the colors, the agitation, the actor and the spectator even. The author assumes the burden of drama." Thierry Maulinier, Racine.
