Christopher Fry citáty

„Hluboká voda je pro ty, kteří umí plavat.“

„Muž by měl hledět do zrcadla jen když se holí. Jinak je ho zrcadlo nedůstojné.“

“Coffee in England is just toasted milk.”

“Poetry is the language in which man explores his own amazement… says heaven and earth in one word… speaks of himself and his predicament as though for the first time. It has the virtue of being able to say twice as much as prose in half the time, and the drawback, if you do not give it your full attention, of seeming to say half as much in twice the time.”

“The difference between tragedy and comedy is the difference between experience and intuition. In the experience we strive against every condition of our animal life: against death, against the frustration of ambition, against the instability of human love. In the intuition we trust the arduous eccentricities we're born to, and see the oddness of a creature who has never got acclimatized to being created.”
