...meaning. He spares no contempt for the perfidious king who killed his father, but he saves his rage for the unfeeling gods who, in all true tragedy, make and mangle human destiny. Williamson is, in all, a great, doomed, spine-shivering Hamlet, and anyone who fails to see him during this limited engagement will not look upon his like again...

Jail Interview. Almost no one, least of all those in the Nixon Administration, wanted to see the impeachment carried out. It would have poisoned the atmosphere in Washington and reflected unfavorably on the entire Government.
