Harold Pinter: Citáty v angličtine

“One way of looking at speech is to say that it is a constant stratagem to cover nakedness.”

Writing for the Theatre (1962)
Zdroj: Various Voices: Prose, Poetry, Politics
Kontext: The speech we hear is an indication of that which we don't hear. It is a necessary avoidance, a violent, sly, and anguished or mocking smoke screen which keeps the other in its true place. When true silence falls we are left with echo but are nearer nakedness. One way of looking at speech is to say that it is a constant stratagem to cover nakedness. (14)

Another time, another time.”

I believe that it will do this not only to take control of Iraqi oil, but also because the American administration is now a blood-thirsty wild animal.”
