Ravenous Hunger And Story Arts


       "The world now consumes films, novels, theater, and television in such quantities and with such ravenous hunger that the story arts have become humanity's prime source of inspiration, as it seeks to order chaos and gain insight into life. Our appetite for story is a reflection of the profound human need to grasp the particular patterns of living, not merely in an intellectual exercise, but was in a very personal, emotional experience. In the words of playwright Jean Anouilh, 'fiction gives life it's form.'"

STORY, Robert McKee, Pg. 12
