I had a big list of quotations from books I had read, including well over a dozen Brust quotes, but I lost it in a computer crash. Of the ones I remember, my favorites are: The "lightbulb" jokes. They weren't about screwing in lightbulbs in the book, but I don't remember what they were about. The best was: Q: How many Yendi does it take to screw in a lightbulb? A: Three. One to screw in the lightbulb, and one to confuse the issue. I also remember (I think from Teckla): "It's been my experience that, just when things look bleakest, they continue to look bleak." - Michael "Someone asked me yesterday if Dracula met Saruman and there was a fight who would win. I just looked at this man. What an idiotic thing to say. I mean, really, it was half-witted." -- Christopher Lee
