When I try to imagine what the theatre can be and will be in the future, it will be a purely spiritual business (I speak neither in the mystical or religious sense at the moment) in which the spirit of the human being will be rediscovered by artists. The spirit will be concretely studied . . . [I]t will be a concrete tool, or means, which we will manage just as easily as any other means. The actor must know what it is, and how to take it and use it. We [will] know how to manage it, and understand how concrete and objective it can be for us. I believe in the spiritual theatre, in the sense of concrete investigation of the spirit of the human being. But the investigation must be done not by scientists, but [rather] by artists and actors.
