If you want to see your plays performed the way you wrote them, become President.

Summary

This quote humorously suggests that the only way to ensure your vision is fully realized in a stage production is to hold a position of authority and power, like being the President. It implies that in any other circumstance, one's work can be altered or interpreted differently by others involved in the creative process. This highlights the common struggle faced by artists in maintaining creative control over their projects and emphasizes the idea that having influence and authority can sometimes be necessary to protect one's artistic vision.
