Biography
Robert E. Sherwood Quotes
“We all come from our own little planets. That’s why we’re all different. That’s what makes life interesting.”“To be able to write a play a man must be sensitive, imaginative, naive, gullible, passionate; he must be something of an imbecile, something of a poet, something of a liar, something of a damn fool.”
“He must be independent and brave, and sure of himself and of the importance of his work, because if he isn’t he will never survive the scorching blasts of derision that will probably greet his first efforts.”
