Terry Pratchett Quotes

The Only Thing Known To Go Faster Than Ordinary Light Is Monarchy, According To The Philosopher Ly Tin Wheedle. He Reasoned Like This: You Can't Have More Than One King, And Tradition Demands That There Is No Gap Between Kings, So When A King Dies The Succession Must Therefore Pass To The Heir Instantaneously. Presumably, He Said, There Must Be Some Elementary Particles
Kingons, Or Possibly Queons
That Do This Job, But Of Course Succession Sometimes Fails If, In Mid-flight, They Strike An Anti-particle, Or Republicon. His Ambitious Plans To Use His Discovery To Send Messages, Involving The Careful Torturing Of A Small King In Order To Modulate The Signal, Were Never Fully Expanded Because, At That Point, The Bar Closed.
