Sees the world as a stage for human drama. She is drawn to the intense and the sublime, and believes in the power of art to reveal the truth about human nature.

In Their Own Words
"(Wagner wrote in a short note) that from that moment my life had acquired its true significance..."
"(She startled me on one occasion by repeating this letter word for word.) It seemed to have made an impression on her too, as she had actually kept it."
"Any one who can remember that wonderful woman at this period of her life must to some extent have experienced the almost Satanic ardour which the intensely human art of this incomparable actress poured into his veins."
