Rehearsing a play is making the word flesh. Publishing a play is reversing the process.
Peter Shaffer

Social democracy... is only the advance guard of the proletariat, a small piece of the total working masses; blood from their blood, and flesh from their flesh.
Rosa Luxemburg

Victor Hugo

Style is as much under the words as in the words. It is as much the soul as it is the flesh of a work.

Augustus Baldwin Longstreet

The good historian is like the giant of the fairy tale. He knows that wherever he catches the scent of human flesh, there his quarry lies.
Marc Bloch

Olivier Messiaen

The mind is the result of the torments the flesh undergoes or inflicts upon itself.

The more flesh you show, the higher up the ladder you go.
