Discworld QOTD, from Hogfather this is my favorite quote in the entire series merry Hogswatch, everyone
“The place where the falling angel meets the rising ape” feels like KJV but it’s Pratchett.
This of Vetinari: “he didn’t administer a reign of terror, just the occasional light shower”.
This is wonderful, thank you! Lately I’ve started insisting that whether there’s actually any justice or mercy in the Universe is not the point, because if there isn’t we have to invent it anyway
The BBC version is worth a watch too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPS5...
Wonderful
Brilliant quote, I'd forgotten it, thx. Pratchett was and is wonderful. I've got a soft spot for Weatherwax & for Vimes, but - and this is strange to write - Death is great too.
I am currently reading Snuff
That one is amazing. Gets me every time. The point where the falling angel meets the rising ape is exactly where we should strive to be.
I love Death dismissing the Hogfather's giving class based gifts and Albert's honesty about how kids react to not getting what they want
watching hogfather is a christmas tradition for me
