Terry Pratchett Quote Bot<p>... laws governing the animal kingdom did not apply to the Librarian. On the other hand, the Librarian himself was never very interested in obeying the laws governing the human kingdom, either. He was one of those little anomalies you have to build around. <br>(Guards Guards)</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TerryPratchett" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TerryPratchett</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quotes</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quote</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bot</span></a></p>

Terry Pratchett Quote Bot<p>Lord Downey was an assassin. Or, rather, an Assassin. The capital letter was important. It separated those cuts who went around murdering people for money from the gentlemen who were occasionally consulted by other gentlemen who wished to have removed, for a consideration, any inconvenient razorblades from the candyfloss of life. <br>(Hogfather)</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TerryPratchett" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TerryPratchett</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quotes</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quote</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bot</span></a></p>

Terry Pratchett Quote Bot<p>There were all sorts of ways to petition the Great God, but they depended largely on how much you could afford, which was right and proper and exactly how things should be. After all, those who had achieved success in the world clearly had done it with the approval of the Great God, because it was impossible to believe that they had managed it with His disapproval.

Terry Pratchett Quote Bot<p>It is said that whosoever the gods wish to destroy, they first make mad.
