This neighbourhood never ceases to entertain.

I heard a commotion in the street just now outside my building (at 11 AM) and watched some street kid rob a slightly older fellow who was weighted down with stuff he was carrying (a satchel, a boom-box, some other clutter). The street kid got away with a propane canister of the type you use for a cooking stove.

I believe you find life such a problem because you think there are good people and bad people. You're wrong, of course. There are, always and only, the bad people, but some of them are on opposite sides.

—Terry Pratchett (as Lord Vetinari)
