Terry Pratchett Pratchett Quote
And give me some coffee. Black as midnight on a moonless night.Harga looked surprised. That wasn't like Vimes.How black's that, then? he said.Oh, pretty damn black, I should think.Not necessarily.What?You get more stars on a moonless night. Stands to reason. They show up more. It can be quite bright on a moonless night.Vimes sighed.An overcast moonless night? he said.Harga looked carefully at his coffee pot.Cumulus or cirro-nimbus?I'm sorry? What did you say?You get city lights reflected off cumulus, because it's low lying, see. Mind you, you can get high-altitude scatter off the ice crystals in--A moonless night, said Vimes, in a hollow voice, that is as black as coffee.
