„The fact that I am now a playwright is a response to the challenge coming from the society I live in. I think this response stands a chance to reach people and tell them something about our world, about its malign excrescences (that is its forms of existence) that must be noticed and removed. After all, theatre is exorcism to me.” Valentin Nicolau

„Valentin Nicolau is undoubtedly a playwright who knows how to write a play, a master of dialogue and of the natural in speech and, not last, an artist resourceful for theatre. All his plays can be staged. They are conceived for the stage. And the stage director has only got minor matters to polish.” Nicolae Manolescu
