Quote of the Whenever

“Taxation, gentlemen, is very much like dairy farming. The task is to extract the maximum amount of milk with the minimum of moo. And I am afraid to say that these days all I get is moo.” — Lord Vetinari (Jingo: A Discworld Novel by Terry Pratchett)

    Haha, I wrote down that quote, too! I love it! Of course, I also love Vetinari, he’s too funny.

    As I make my way through Jingo, I’m starting to come to the conclusion that I enjoy the City Watch Discworld novels quite a bit more than some of the others I’ve read. Great stuff…
