%passage 1
-Feet of Clay, by Terry Pratchett
+Rumour is information distilled so finely that it can filter through anything.
+It does not need doors and windows -- sometimes it does not need people.
+It can exist free and wild, running from ear to ear without ever touching lips.
+ [Feet of Clay, by Terry Pratchett]

-
+It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us.
+If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me?
+After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them.
+No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us.
+It's Them that do the bad things.

-The Truth, by Terry Pratchett
-
There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those
who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is
half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty.
The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's
up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is may glass? I don't think
so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass! Who's been pinching my beer?
