"The woman, you mean?"
"The woman nothing. She's a wooden peg to hang your ideas on. I mean the man she married."
"But he is so unimportant," Jarvis protested.
"He was important enough to get this interview. I never would have bothered with you, or with your play, if it hadn't been for that character. He's new."
"You want me to make him a bigger part in the play?"
"My advice is to throw this play in the wastebasket and write one about that man."
"Will you produce it if I do?"
"Probably not, but I'll look it over. What else have you done?"
"I have finished two things. One I call 'The Vision'—this is a Brotherhood of Man play—the other I call 'Peace,' and it's a dramatization of the Universal Peace idea."
"Why don't you write something human? Nobody wants dramatized movements. The public wants people, personalities, things we all know and feel. You can't get much thrill out of Universal Peace."
