    "Nothing in the theatre is staler than the situation of the husband, wife and lover, or the fun of knockabout farce. I have taken both and got an original play out of them, as anybody else can if he will only look about him for his material instead of plagiarizing Othello and the thousand other plays that have proceeded on Othello's romantic assumptions and false point of honour." (Preface, 1904)
