What is beautiful is good, and who is good will soon be beautiful.

Nothing shows up the difference between the things said or read, so much as the daily experience of it.

Usually, when you get early versions of scripts, they are not very good. I found 'Borgen' amazing from the very first read-through because of how fast-paced and gripping it was.
