Quotes
- bblbrxhas quoted3 years ago
The Patrician steepled his hands and looked at Vimes over the top of them.
‘Let me give you some advice, Captain,’ he said.
‘Yes, sir?’
‘It may help you make some sense of the world.’
‘Sir.’
‘I believe you find life such a problem because you think there are the good people and the bad people,’ said the man. ‘You’re wrong, of course. There are, always and only, the bad people, but some of them are on opposite sides.’ - bblbrxhas quoted3 years agoHe shouldered past a row of palace guards and shambled as fast as he could across the flagstones.

But very highly paid.’
Vimes said nothing. Wonse was a gloater. You always stood a chance with gloaters. The old Patrician had never been a gloater, you could say that for him. If he wanted you dead, you never even heard about it.
