The Prophet from Quirm

[Swedishguy]

As the Prothet from Quirm said: 'Belief is better than nothing. If there is such a paradise after Death when it is good. If there isn't, when no harm has been done.'

One fine night he was going to sleep for the last time ever. When he awakened he was surrounded by angry gods. One of them said: 'Now we shall show you what we think of selfish bastards like you...'

From a book in the Discworld series.

Which book is that from? I've read most of them but can't remember that one.

"My duties are to protect the innocent, serve the public trust and seriously prod buttock, sir."

Pratchett is amazingly hilarious and thoughtful at the same time.

I must agree, his "stealth Philosophy"(not my words) is absolutly genious.

I must say that I prefer Small Gods.

I think 'Interesting times' was one of the funniest, but the best one in my opinion is the 'Fifth Elephant'.
