Edward Bond

« All quotes from this author
 

I write about violence as naturally as Jane Austen wrote about manners. Violence shapes and obsesses our society, and if we do not stop being violent we have no future. People who do not want writers to write about violence want to stop them writing about us and our time. It would be immoral not to write about violence.
--
Preface to Lear (1972; London: Methuen, 1983) p. lvii
