tribute: Thief of Time

For passage 4, I ended up including a lot more than originally intended.
The text is only two full pages (top of 74 to bottom of 75) though.

+%passage 2
+Silver stars weren't awarded frequently, and gold starts happened less
+than once a fortnight, and were vied for accordingly.  Right now, Miss
+Susan selected a silver star.  Pretty soon Vincent the Keen would have a
+galaxy of his very own.  To give him his due, he was quite disinterested
+in which kind of star he got.  Quantity, that was what he liked.  Miss
+Susan had privately marked him down as Boy Most Likely To Be Killed One
+Day By His Wife.

+As Lobsang followed the ambling Lu-Tze, he heard the dojo master, who like

+%passage 4
+One day a group of senior novices, for mischief, kicked over the little
+shrine that Lu-Tze kept beside his sleeping mat.
+
+Next morning, no sweepers turned up for work.  They stayed in their huts
+with the doors barred.  After making inquiries, the abbot, who at that time
+was fifty years old again, summoned the three novices to his room.  There
+were three brooms leaning against the wall.  He spoke as follows:
+
+"You know that the dreadful Battle of Five Cities did not happen because
+the messenger got there in time?"
+
+They did.  You learned this early in your studies.  And they bowed
+nervously, because this was the abbot, after all.
+
+"And you know then that when the messenger's horse threw a shoe he espied
+a man trudging beside the road carrying a small portable forge and pushing
+an anvil on a barrow?"
+
+They knew.
+
+"And you know that man was Lu-tze?"
+
+They did.
+
+"Surely you know that Janda Trapp, Grand Master of /Oki-doki/, /Toro-fu/,
+and /Chang-fu/, has only ever yielded to one man?"
+
+They knew.
+
+"And you know that man is Lu-Tze?"
+
+They did.
+
+"You know the little shrine you kicked over last night?"
+
+They knew.
+
+"You know it had an owner?"
+
+There was silence.  Then the brightest of the novices looked up at the
+abbot in horror, swallowed, picked up one of the three brooms, and walked
+out of the room.
+
+The other two were slower of brain and had to follow the story all the way
+through to the end.
+
+Then one of them said, "But it was only a sweeper's shrine!"
+
+"You will take up the brooms and sweep," said the abbot, "and you will
+sweep every day, and you will sweep until the day you find Lu-Tze and dare
+to say 'Sweeper, it was I who knocked over and scattered your shrine and
+now I will in humility accompany you to the dojo on the Tenth Djim, in
+order to learn the Right Way.'  Only then, if you are still able, may you
+resume your studies here.  Understood?"(1)
+
+Older monks sometimes complained, but someone would always say:  "Remember
+that Lu-Tze's Way is not our Way.  Remember he learned everything by
+sweeping unheeded while students were being educated.  Remember, he has
+been everywhere and done many things.  Perhaps he is a little... strange,
+but remember he walked into a citadel full of armed men and traps and
+nevertheless saw to it that the Pash of Muntab choked innocently on a fish
+bone.  No monk is better than Lu-Tze at finding the Time and the Place."
+
+Some, who did not know, would say:  "What is this Way that gives him so
+much power?"
+
+And they were told:  "It is the Way of Mrs. Marietta Cosmopolite, 3 Quirm
+Street, Ankh-Morpork, Rooms To Rent Very Reasonable.  No, we don't
+understand it, either.  Some subsendential rubbish, apparently."
+
+(1) And the story continues:  The novice who had protested that it was only
+the shrine of a sweeper ran away from the temple; the student who said
+nothing remained a sweeper for the rest of his life; and the student who
+has seen the inevitable shape of the story went, after much agonizing and
+several months of meticulous sweeping, to Lu-Tze and knelt and asked to be
+shown the Right Way.  Whereupon the sweeper took him to the dojo of the
+Tenth Djim, with its terrible multibladed fighting machines and its
+fearsome serrated weapons such as the /clong-clong/ and the /uppsi/.  The
+story runs that the sweeper then opened a cupboard at the back of the dojo
+and produced a broom and spake thusly:  "One hand /here/ and the other
+/here/, understand?  People never get it right.  Use good, even strokes
+and let the broom do most of the work.  Never try to sweep up a big pile,
+you'll end up sweeping every bit of dust twice.  Use your dustpan wisely,
+and remember:  a small brush for the corners."

+%passage 5
+"But did not Wen say that if the truth is anywhere, it is everywhere?" said
+Lobsang.
+
+"Well done.  I see you learned /something/, at least.  But one day it
+seemed to me that everyone else had decided that wisdom can only be found a
+long way off.  So I went to Ankh-Morpork.  They were all coming here, so it
+seemed only fair.
+
+"Seeking /enlightenment/?"
+
+"No.  The wise man does not seek enlightenment, he waits for it.  So while
+I was waiting, it occurred to me that seeking perplexity might be more
+fun," said Lu-Tze.  "After all, enlightenment begins where perplexity ends.
+And I found perplexity.  And a kind of enlightenment, too.  I had not been
+there for five minutes, for example, when some men in an alley tried to
+enlighten me of what little I possessed, giving me a valuable lesson in
+the ridiculousness of material things."

+"Let's get up into Zephyr Street," said Susan.
+
+"What is there for us?"
+
+"Wienrich and Boettcher."
+
+"Who are they?"
+
+"I think the original Herr Wienrich and Frau Boettcher died a long time ago.
+But the shop still does very good business," said Susan, darting across the
+street.  "We need ammunition."
+
+Lady LeJean caught up.
+
+"Oh.  They make chocolate?" she said.
+
+"Does a bear poo in the woods?" said Susan and realized her mistake right
+away.(1)
+
+Too late.  Lady LeJean looked thoughtful for a moment.
+
+"Yes," she said at last.  "Yes, I believe that most varities do, indeed,
+excrete, as you suggest, at least in the temperate zones, but there are
+several that--"
+
+"I mean to say that, yes, they make chocolate," said Susan.

+%passage 7
+Kaos listened to history.
+
+There were new words.  Wizards and philosophers had found Chaos, which is
+Kaos with his hair combed and a tie on, and had found in the epitome of
+disorder a new order undreamed of.  /There are different kinds of rules./
+/From the simple comes the complex, and from the complex comes a different/
+/kind of simplicity.  Chaos is order in a mask.../
+
+Chaos.  Not dark, ancient Kaos, left behind by the evolving universe, but
+new, shiny Chaos, dancing in the heart of everything.  The idea was
+strangely attractive.  And it was a reason to go on living.
