Book: Going Postal: A Novel of Discworld by Terry Pratchett
That's a brilliant quote from Terry Pratchett's "Going Postal." It encapsulates his sharp wit and the way he used humor to comment on human nature and society. Pratchett often infused such insights into his Discworld novels, making them not only entertaining but also thought-provoking. It's a reminder of the fickle nature of public opinion and the transient nature of fame or power. What do you think draws people to this kind of spectacle?
