------------------------------
17. Remember that you are an actor in a drama, of such a kind as the author pleases to make it. If short, of a short one; if long, of a long one. If it is his pleasure you should act a poor man, a cripple,
a governor, or a private person, see that you act it naturally. For this is your business, to act well the character assigned you; to choose it is another's.
