More From George MacDonald

The books in mo and meggie's house were stacked under tables, on chairs, in the corners of the rooms. there where books in the kitchen and books in the lavatory. books on the tv set and in the closet, small piles of books, tall piles of books, books thick and thin, books old and new. they welcomed meggie down to breakfast with invitingly opened pages; they kept boredom at bay when the weather was bad. and sometimes you fall over them.
Book Fall Weather
His master’s pain was his pain. and it hurt him more for his master to be sick than for him to be sick himself. when the house started burning down, that type of negro would fight harder to put the master’s house out than the master himself would. but then you had another negro out in the field. the house negro was in the minority. the masses—the field negroes were the masses. they were in the majority. when the master got sick, they prayed that he’d die. if his house caught on fire, they'd pray for a wind to come along and fan the breeze.

I am a product of endless books. my father bought all the books he read and never got rid of any of them. there were books in the study, books in the drawing room, books in the cloakroom, books (two deep) in the great bookcase on the landing, books in a bedroom, books piled as high as my shoulder in the cistern attic...in the seemingly endless rainy afternoons i took volume after volume from the shelves. i had always the same certainty of finding a book that was new to me as a man who walks into a field has of finding a new blade of grass.

Every once and a while somebody writes a script, but even regardless of what age you are, most of the actors would all agree that it's all based upon material and the material has got to spark with you. it may be great material but you think it's great material for somebody else. or it's great material and i'm perfect for it. so, you just have to make that judgment and if you feel in the mood to do it.
