Discworld QOTD, from Night Watch

“He didn’t look around, and watch and learn, and then say, ‘This is how people are, how do we deal with it?’ No, he sat and thought: ‘This is how the people ought to be, how can we change them?’ And that was a good enough thought for a priest but not for a copper…”
Discworld QOTD, from Eric

"Hell, it has been suggested, is other people.

This has always come as a bit of a surprise to many demons, who had always thought that hell was sticking sharp things into people and pushing them into lakes of blood and so on."

Hogfather belongs in any top 5 Discworld list and the way Death behaves as the Hogfather is a big reason why

a lot of things ARE unfair, and when you see them from the perspective of the seven foot anthropomorphic personification of The End, there's no reason they should be that way at all

‘That’s life, master.’

BUT I’M NOT.

‘I meant this is how it’s supposed to go, master,’ said Albert.

Does anyone know of an artist who has closable realistic ceramic cardboard boxes for sale? Something that looks exactly like a cardboard box but made of clay, has a top, and is actually for sale - not a long ago gallery show or whatever.

Looking for specific leads pls, not "did u try etsy/google".

“‘Am I alone in thinking, by the way, that it doesn’t add to the status of the University to have an ape on the faculty?’

‘Yes,’ said Ridcully flatly. ‘You are. We’ve got the only librarian who can rip off your arm with his leg. People respect that.’”
