Realise Quotes (page 9)
As the eye of narrative drew back from the coffin on its stand, two things happened. One happened comparatively slowly, and this was Vargo's realisation that he never recalled the coffin having a pillow before. The other was Greebo deciding that he was as mad as hell and wasn't going to take it any more.
Terry Prachett

We had joined up with enthusiasm and with good will; but they did everything to knock that out of us.
Erich Maria Remarque
