“The thing about Shakespeare is, whatever his politics were, the one thing he wasn't was an anarchist. He believes there's something called power, and he believes that somebody has to take it. And that you can't pretend power doesn't exist. And to me, Bush is a person who understands American power, and what it can do. But unfortunately, he's used it in a way that reveals its limitations, and that's the tragedy, if you like.”
David Hare
“From forth the fatal loins of these two foesA pair of star-crossed lovers take their life.”
