Strength was the virtue of paganism; obedience is the virtue of Christianity.
More Quotes from David Hare:
In the London production, Powell was represented much more, if you like, as a hero. I admire him as a man who understands what collateral damage is, who understands what a military operation is, and who knows what it's like to see people's lives destroyed by bombs. On the other hand, a number of people who saw the play in London, who were as they say, 'close,' did say, 'You've taken too benign a view of Powell.' And in this production in New York, I've toughened up the writing about Powell. I've come to believe that 'conflicted' would be a very polite word for his UN presentation.David Hare
