论艺术
在艺术中，兴趣必须集中于主要主题。戏剧是所有艺术中最为艰难的。在戏剧中，有两件事须同时得到满足——其一是听觉，其二是视觉。若画一幅场景，只画一件事物，那已是相当容易；但要描绘不同的事物，同时又保持中心兴趣完整不散，则非常之难。另一件困难的事是舞台调度，也就是以这样的方式将不同的元素融合在一起，使中心兴趣始终保持不受损害。
English
In art, interest must be centred on the principal theme. Drama is the most difficult of all arts. In it two things are to be satisfied -- first, the ears, and second, the eyes. To paint a scene, if one thing be painted, it is easy enough; but to paint different things and yet to keep up the central interest is very difficult. Another difficult thing is stage - management, that is, combining different things in such a manner as to keep the central interest intact.
