America Quote by Sarah Ruhl

“In America I think it's much more full of disruption culturally; it's much more mysterious how we inherit culture here. We grab it where we can find it - we're insatiable - and there can be a sense here that it's not available to you as readily as it is in other cultures.” quote by Sarah Ruhl — Download Open image
