Do you ever feel like you’re in a very bad play, full of melodrama, and screaming, and nonsense?!
Actors are so fortunate. They can choose whether they will appear in tragedy or in comedy, whether they will suffer or make merry, laugh or shed tears.
But in real life it is different. Most men and women are forced to perform parts for which they have no qualifications.
The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.
Oscar Wilde, Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime, 1887
