For instance, a critic is always serving the theatre when he
is hounding out incompetence. If he spends most of his
time grumbling, he is almost always right. The appalling
difficulty of making theatre must be accepted: it is, or
would be, if truly practised, perhaps the hardest medium
of all: it is merciless, there is no room for error, or for
waste. A novel can survive the reader who skips pages,
or entire chapters; the audience, apt to change from pleasure to boredom in a wink can be lost, irrevocably.
