Terry Prachett quote: "Vimes stalked gloomily through the crowded streets, feeling..."
Vimes stalked gloomily through the crowded streets, feeling like the only pickled onion in a fruit salad. Terry Prachett
The Lord had given them the day and the Lord had given them the strength. And the day and the strength had been dedicated to labor, and the labor was its reward. Who was the labor for? What would be its fruits? These were irrelevant and idle questions. Leo Tolstoy
