"[A]ll of us who try to notice these little human failings assume that Mercier would probably not write a good script, as most readers do not have a good story in them, and by no means a script, and even fewer are the non-readers with any . . . good stories or scripts in them, they can write only fripperies, the upmost shameful insignificances, and this together with Mercier's lack of curiosity and experience would upset . . . any wise person who happened to know that Mercier was about to or intended to write or had already written a script, for this would certainly be another evil act of terrorism on art."
