+"Rain's stopped.  Let's go over the wall," he said.  "We deserve a drink."
+
+Victor waggled a finger.  "Just one drink, then.  Got to keep sober," he
+said.  "It's Finals tomorrow.  Got to keep a clear head!"
+
+"Huh!", said Ponder.
+
+Of course, it's very important to be sober when you take an exam.  Many
+worthwhile careers in the street-cleansing, fruit-picking and subway-guitar-
+playing industries have been founded on a lack of understanding of this
+simple fact.

+%passage 7
+In a sense which his tutors couldn't quite define, much to their annoyance,
+Victor Tugelbend was also the laziest person in the history of the world.
+
+Not simply, ordinarily lazy.  Ordinary laziness was merely the absence of
+effort.  Victor had passed through there a long time ago, had gone straight
+through commonplace idleness and out on the far side.  He put more effort
+into avoiding work than most people put into hard labour.

+%passage 8
+Cut-me-own-Throat Dibbler was one of those rare people with the ability to
+think in straight lines.
+
+Most people think in curves and zig-zags.  For example, they start with a
+thought like:  I wonder how I can become very rich, and then proceed along
+an uncertain course which includes thoughts like:  I wonder what's for
+supper, and:  I wonder who I know that can lend me five dollars?
+
+Whereas Throat was one of those people who could identify the thought at the
+other end of the process, in this case /I am now very rich/, draw a line
+between the two, and then think his way along it, slowly and patiently,
+until he got to the other end.
+
+Not that it worked.  There was always, he found, some small but vital flaw
+in the process.  It generally involved a strange reluctance on the part of
+people to buy what he had to sell.

+"Tell me, Mr Dibbler." said Silverfish, "what exactly is your profession?"
+
+"I sell merchandise," said Dibbler.
+
+"Mostly sausages," Victor volunteered.
+
+"/And/ merchandise," said Dibbler, sharply.  "I only sell sausages when the
+merchandising trade is a bit slow."
+
+"And the sale of sausages leads you to believe you can make better moving
+pictures?" said Silverfish.  "Anyone can sell sausages!  Isn't that so,
+Victor?"
+
+"Well..." said Victor, reluctantly.  No-one except Dibbler could possibly
+sell Dibbler's sausages.
+
+"There you are then," said Silverfish.
+
+"The thing is," said Victor, "that Mr Dibbler can even sell sausages to
+people who have bought them off him /before/."
+
+"That's right!" said Dibbler.  He beamed at Victor.
+
+"And a man who could sell Mr Dibbler's sausages twice could sell anything,"
+said Victor.

+Borgle's commissary had decided to experiment with salads tonight.  The
+nearest salad growing district was thirty slow miles away.
+
+"What dis?" demanded a troll, holding up something limp and brown.
+
+Fruntkin the short-order chef hazarded a guess.
+
+'Celery?" he said.  He peered closer.  "Yeah, celery."
+
+"It /brown/."
+
+"'S'right.  'S'right!  Ripe celery ort to be brown," said Fruntkin, quickly.
+"Shows it's ripe," he added.
+
+"It should be /green/."
+
+"Nah.  Yore finking about the tomatoes," said Fruntkin.
+
+"Yeah, and what's this runny stuff?" said a man in the queue.
+
+Fruntkin drew himself up to his full height.
+
+"That," he said, "is the mayonnaisey.  Made it myself.  Out of a /book/, he
+added proudly.
+
+"Yead, I expect you did," said the man, prodding it.  "Clearly oil, eggs
+and vinegar were not involved, right?"
+
+"Specialitay de lar mayson," said Fruntkin.
+
+"Right, right," said the man.  "Only it's attacking my lettuce."
+
+Fruntkin grasped his ladle angrily.
+
+"Look--" he began.
+
+"No, it's all right," said the prospective diner.  "The slugs have formed a
+defensive ring."

+"Er, I was just wondering, Mr Dibbler... what is my motivation for this

+
+"Motivation?"
+
+"Yes.  Er.  I got to know, see," said Rock.
+
+"How about:  I'll fire you if you don't do it properly?"
+
+Rock grinned.  "Right you are, Mr Dibbler," he said.

+%passage 12
+Magic wasn't difficult.  That was the big secret that the whole baroque
+edifice or wizardry had been set up to conceal.  Anyone with a bit of
+intelligence and enough perseverance could do magic, which was why the
+wizards cloaked it with rituals and the whole pointy-hat business.
+
+The trick was to do magic and /get away with it/.
+
+Because it was as if the human race was a field of corn and magic helped
+the users grow just that bit taller, so that they stood out.  That
+attracted the attention of gods and--Victor hesitated--other Things outside
+this world.  People who used magic without knowing what they were doing
+usually came to a sticky end.
+
+All over the entire room, sometimes.

+"Right you are, Mr Dibbler," rumbled the troll, gripping Silverfish's
+collar.

+"You haven't heard the last of this, you--you scheming, devious

+"That's /Mister/ Megalomanic to you," he said.
