Quotes

  • I don’t want to stay in a place that calls itself a Jewish community but is the propaganda office of a government. I am against those who want to ‘Israelianize’ Judaism.
  • Art possesses the formidable tool of . Take, for instance, theatre. Theatre, by convention, agrees to be fake; thanks to this convention, which is innocuous, it can tell the truth. Art can tell the truth, because it is a transfigured language which doesn’t claim to possess divine truth; with its ability to transform relationships, it can address even the most terrible issues, exploring them without being destroyed by them. But artists have to be conscious of their role.
