Quote of the Day (Jean Anouilh’s Joan of Arc, on ‘True Miracles’)


Joan of Arc: “I say that true miracles are not tricks performed by gypsies in a village square. True miracles are created by men when they use the courage and intelligence that God gave them.”— French playwright Jean Anouilh (1910-1987), The Lark, adapted by Lillian Hellman (1955)

(The image accompanying this post shows Julie Harris, who starred as Joan in both the Broadway show and the 1957 TV adaptation of it.)
