Everything starts somewhere, though many physicists disagree.

+# 3 new passages added for 3.7

+# pp. 2-3 (the door turns out to lead to a bathroom designed by Bergholt
+# Stuttly "Bloody Stupid" Johnson, an infamous architect and
+# landscape designer known for creating dangerous and/or unusable
+# versions of whatever he'd been hired to produce)
+%passage 11
+The senior wizards of Unseen University stood and looked at the door.
+
+There was no doubt that whoever had shut it wanted it to stay shut. Dozens
+of nails secured it to the door frame. Planks had been nailed right across.
+And finally it had, up until this morning, been hidden by a bookcase that
+had been put in front of it.
+
+"And there's the sign, Ridcully," said the Dean. "You /have/ read it, I
+assume. You know? The sign which says 'Do not, under any circumstances,
+open this door'?"
+
+"Of course I've read it," said Ridcully. "Why d'yer think I want it
+opened?"
+
+"Er... why?" said the Lecturer in Recent Runes.
+
+"To see why they wanted it shut, of course."(1)
+
+(1) This exchange contains almost all you need to know about human
+civilization. At least, those bits of it that are now under the sea,
+fenced off or still smoking.
+
+ [Hogfather, by Terry Pratchett]
+%e passage
+# p. 144 (the wizards have been discussing hangover cures and are hoping to
+# produce one for Bilious, the god--actually "oh god"--of hangovers)
+%passage 12
+Then the Dean repeated the mantra that has had such a marked effect on the
+progress of knowledge throughout the ages.
+
+"Why don't we just mix up absolutely everything and see what happens?" he
+said.
+
+And Ridcully responded with the traditional response.
+
+"It's got to be worth a try," he said.
+
+ [Hogfather, by Terry Pratchett]
+%e passage
+# p. 192 (senior wizards are discussing Hex, an organic+clockwork computer
+# invented, built, and run by junior wizards and advanced students)
+%passage 13
+"I don't hold with using that thinking machine," said the Dean. "I've said
+this before. It's meddling with the cult. The /oc/cult has always been
+good enough for me, thank you very much."
+
+"On the other hand it's the only person round here who can think straight
+and it does what it's told," said Ridcully.
