I have often been asked how my plays come about. I cannot say. Nor can I ever sum up my plays, except to say that this is what happened. That is what they said. That is what they did.

I was not born blind, I became blind at the age of 12. So I have seen the world and I know what things look like. When I sing about love and pain, joy and sadness, I know what I'm singing about.

Every book is a door to another world.
