Dickens is just so wonderful. One of the biggest thrills my husband and I had when we went to England, was actually getting to tour through one of his old houses, which is now the Charles Dickens Museum. We both love his writing equally, and often quote from his novels. This line that the Articulator says about sorting the bones....it just slays me every time. lol

Thank you!!!

I know what you mean! Two of my favorite quotations are by Dickens, and about him. The first, is from Great Expectations: "We at the whole of the toast, and drank tea in proportion, and it was delightful to see how warm and greasy we all got after it. The Aged especially, might have passed for some clean old chief of a savage tribe, just oiled." (Love that. LOVE it. Love Wemmick and his "postage box" mouth...and his sly courtship of Miss Skiffins...)

And the other is about Dickens--by Robert Louis Stevenson: "Oh what a jolly thing it is for a man to have written books like these books, and just filled people's hearts with a desire to do good!"

I envy you your tour of one of his old houses! That must've been wonderful!

BTW...if you like Dickens, and haven't stumbled on it before, see if you can find an old copy of "A Child's Journey with Dickens", by Kate Douglas Wiggin. (Author of Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, and many other, even better, children's books...) It's very short...but is all about her meeting him, on a train, as a young girl, and his conversation with her. It's absolutely enchanting. (I found my copy--which I loaned out, and was never returned, sadly--on eBay, but it took me about a year of searching, to get it at a price I could afford. It's not often for sale at a reasonable price.)

Ah, wonderful! My first thought on looking at this piece was to wonder whether it was from a fairy tale. Beautiful textures and colors, just wonderful aged appearance!
