“You can't treat religion as a sort of buffet, can you? I mean, you can't say, 'Yes please, I'll have some of the Celestial Paradise and a helping of the Divine Plan but go easy on the kneeling and none of the Prohibition of Images, they give me wind'. It's table d'hôte or nothing, otherwise ... well, it could get silly. ”
—Moist von Lipwig, Postmaster (Terry Pratchett, Going Postal)“In the history of this city, gentlemen, we have put on trial at various times seven pigs, a tribe of rats, four horses, one flea, and a swarm of bees. Last year a parrot was allowed as a prosecution witness in a serious murder case, and I had to arrange a witness protection scheme for it. I believe it is now pretending to be a very large budgerigar a long way away.”
—Mr. Slant, Attorney of Law (Terry Pratchett, The Truth)
I hope I’m not the only one who wondered if this was a Phoenix Wright reference!
