“The drama is not a mere copy of nature, not a facsimile. It is the free running hand of genius, under the impression of its liveliest wit or most passionate impulses, a thousand times adorning or feeling all as it goes; and you must read it, as the healthy instinct of audiences almost always does, if the critics will let them alone, with a grain of allowance, and a tendency to go away with as much of it for use as is necessary, and the rest for the luxury of laughter, pity, or poetical admiration.” IfsDoeUseFeelingsHandsRunningAudienceGeniusHealthyDramaThousandLaughterMereInstinctCriticsPassionateWitImpressionPityTendenciesLuxuryImpulseGoing AwayAdmirationCopiesGrainAllowance Author:Leigh Hunt
