Terry Pratchett Quotes

Rats Had Featured Largely In The History Of Ankh-Morpork. Shortly Before The Patrician Came To Power There Was A Terrible Plague Of Rats. The City Council Countered It By Offering Twenty Pence For Every Rat Tail. This Did, For A Week Or Two, Reduce The Number Of Rats - And Then People Were Suddenly Queing Up With Tails, The City Treasury Was Being Drained, And No One Seemed To Be Doing Much Work. And There Still Seemed To Be A Lot Of Rats Around. Lord Vetinari Had Listened Carefully While The Problem Was Explained, And Had Solved The Thing With One Memorable Phrase Which Said A Lot About Him, About The Folly Of Bounty Offers, And About The Natural Instinct Of Ankh-Morporkians In Any Situation Involving Money: Tax The Rat Farms.
