Joan Crawford was the living example of one of the basic rules of style. That which cannot be wholly concealed should be deliberately displayed.
-- Quentin Crisp
I don’t like the discrimination against style that some people have. Every serious writer has a style… Style isn’t camp or chi-chi. I write in a certain way because I can express things that I couldn’t express in naturalistic terms. In naturalistic drama you can’t do anything except discuss teacup things, you know -- Mavis’ new hat.
-- Joe Orton
