How we cite our quotes: (Story.Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #1
In any case, there were other lands and [Rincewind] had a facility for languages. Let him but get to Chimera or Gonim or Ecalpon and half a dozen armies couldn't bring him back. And then—wealth, comfort, security… (1.14.15)
His lack of wealth, comfort, and security is a sore point in Rincewind's existence. Ironically, all his attempts to find those things seem to push him further away from them.
Quote #2
"Well, if you must know, I thought he didn't mean magic. Not as such." "What else is there, then?" Rincewind began to feel really wretched. (1.15.45-47)
Another dissatisfaction of Rincewind's. The irony here is that we tend to think of magic as something that would make life way better than it is, not more complicated or wretched.
Quote #3
"Stands to reason," said Rerpf. "People robbing and murdering all over place, what sort of impression are visitors going to take away? You come all the way to see our fine city with its quaint customs, and you wake up dead in some back alley or as it might be floating down the Ankh, how are you going to tell all your friends what a great time you're having? Let's face it, you've got to move with the times." (1.17.71)
Twoflower's appearance in Ankh-Morpork creates an almost activist air amongst some of the citizens. They've grown dissatisfied with all the robbery and murder, and at the very least, they want the other guilds to turn it down a bit.
