"Ah," said Mr Pin. "Right. I remember. You are concerned citizens." He knew about concerned citizens. Wherever they were, they all spoke the same private language, where 'traditional values' meant 'hang someone'."
"When people say "clearly" something that means there's a huge crack in their argument and they know things aren't clear at all."
"Nothing has to be true forever. Just for long enough."
"I have certainly noticed that groups of clever and intelligent people are capable of really stupid ideas."
"Mr Tulip raised a trembling hand. 'Is this the bit where my whole life passes in front of my eyes?' he said.

"The mountains of madness have many little plateaux of sanity."
"The universe required everything to be observed, lest it cease to exist."
