Broadway has been very good to me. But I've been very good to Broadway, too.

Quoted in "Funny Ladies: The Best Humor from America's Funniest Women", Bill Adler (2001), Page 90Ethel Merman
For the first time a subject is present, not by virtue of its absence, but actually present,, though its appearance is torn away, and only the structure bared. The Modern City! Precise, rectangular, squared, whether seen from above, below, or on the side; bright lights and sterilized life; Broadway, whites and blacks; and boogie-woogie; the underground music of the at once resigned and rebellious.. ..Mondrian has left his white paradise, and entered the world. (1942, on the painting 'Broadway Boogie Woogie' of Piet Mondrian)
Mark Rothko
I'm basically tired of doing what I have been doing for the last 10 years. My interest level was dipping. I was doing a fairly good job, when compared to others. The standards I have set for myself are higher. When I watched the Broadway show Miss Saigon, I was ashamed of being called an actress. The leading lady's performance was outstanding. I was ashamed that I am in the same profession but could not touch those heights.

Without question, Steve is the best Broadway lyricist, past or present.
Stephen Sondheim
Broadway — the great sluice that washes out the dust of the gold-mines of Gotham.
O. Henry
Off-Off-Broadway is absolutely necessary. It doesn't have to be sanctioned by the state, subsidized or anything. The plank and the passion is what it's about.
