Theatre is one of those things that children will love if they're helped to get there to see it. No child will find his or her own way to the theatre.

Every government secretary of state or minister should jolly well go to the theatre, go to a concert, go to an art gallery, go to a museum, become somehow interested in these things. If they're not interested, they shouldn't be in government, full stop.

The arts are beyond price; they're beyond value. They're of incalculable worth in what it means to be a human being.

Philip Pullman Quotes
