Terry Pratchett Quote

It was the way he wore the place. You expected him any moment to break into the kind of song that has suspicious rhymes and phrases like my kind of town and I wanna be a part of it in it; the kind of song where people dance in the street and give the singer apples and join in and a dozen lowly matchgirls suddenly show amazing choreographical ability and everyone acts like cheery lovable citizens instead of the murderous, evil-minded, self-centered people they suspect themselves to be. But the point was that if Carrot had erupted into a song, people WOULD have joined in. Carrot could have jollied up a circle of standing stones to form up behind him and do a rumba.
