“People ask me when I decided to become a playwright, and I tell them I decide to do it every day. Most days it's very hard because I'm frightened - not frightened of writing a bad play, although that happens often with me. I'm frightened of encountering the wilderness of my own spirit, which is always , no matter how many plays I write, a new and uncharted place. Every day when I sit down to write, I can't remember how it's done.”
![“The first time I went over to [my director's] house, he said to me, This is a very strange play. I was pleased that he reminded me of that. [He] understands the play [VENUS] intellectually and emotionally and the humor, the funny bone.” quote by Suzan-Lori Parks](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/06d/suzan-lori-parks-20794_bones_the-first-time-i-went-over-to-my-directo_860136.jpg)
