Excerpt from Tears: A Drama of Modern Life in Four Acts The purpose of playing. . . is to hold, as't were, the mirror up to nature, to show virtue her own feature, scorn her own image, and the very age and body of the time his form and pressure. - Shakespeare, Hamlet, Act 3, Scene 2. That romanticism is more interesting than the realism which is prevalent, I grant, but it seems to me that the realism of which we think is only superficial, and naturally the discussion or narration of the common will be interesting, but the point which I wish to make is that if the inner lives of the majority of the human race were disclosed, we should have romances and even tragedies in abundance.
