"[...] You see, the curious thing is that although Ankh-Morpork is probably

He was anxious, he said, to learn the Ankh-Morpork way of doing things, the
kind of innocent ambition that could well lead to an aspiring leader...
well, finding out the Ankh-Morpork way of doing things. Heinrich had a
reputation locally for cunning, but Ankh-Morpork had overtaken cunning a
thousand years ago, had sped past devious, had left artful far behind, and
had now, by a roundabout route, arrived at straightforward.

"Well, couldn't you help him by magic?"
"I'll see to it that he's in no pain, yes," said Miss Level.
