What kind of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

Going Postal Part 1 (2010) - “Read my lips: Words do not kill! People kill. Wild animals kill. But words… words have a totally different power. They enter in through our eyes and ears and work their way into our souls.”

It is wrong to judge by appearances. Despite his expression, which was that of a piglet having a bright idea, and his mode of speech, which might put you in mind of a small, breathless, neurotic but ridiculously expensive dog, Mr Horsefry might well have been a kind, generous and pious man. In the same way, the man climbing out of your window in a stripy jumper, a mask and a great hurry might merely be lost on the way to a fancy-dress party, and the man in the wig and robes at the focus of a courtroom might only be a transvestite who wandered in out of the rain. Snap judgements can be so unfair.

There was no point in bothering with a saddle. He knew how to ride without a saddle. Hell, once he’d ridden without pants, too, but luckily all the tar and feathers helped him stick to the horse. He was the world champion at leaving town in a hurry.

You had to admire the way perfectly innocent words were mugged, ravished, stripped of all true meaning and decency, and then sent to walk the gutter for Reacher Gilt, although “synergistically” had probably been a whore from the start.

A man who rushes into a burning building to rescue a stupid cat and comes out carrying the cat is seen as a hero, even if he is a rather dumb one. If he comes out sans cat he’s a twit.

They say that the prospect of being hanged in the morning concentrates a man's mind wonderfully; unfortunately what the mind inevitably concentrates on is that it is in a body, that, in the morning, is going to be hanged.

Fifteen Favorite Things I Watched in 2010 | 11. Going Postal
I stopped in a WH Smith during my October trip to London and spotted the colorful artwork for this DVD among their new releases, and decided to pick it up on a whim. I’d heard of Terry Pratchett but had never read any of his work, so I wasn’t quite sure what I was in for - it looked like a quirky Pushing Daisies-type fantasy story which seemed right up my alley - and it was. It was wonderful: funny, offbeat, and really pretty. I love Richard Coyle in Coupling but he’s absolutely brilliant as Moist Von Lipwig, a convicted con man who survives the noose and is sentenced to re-open the defunct post office in the city of Ankh-Morpork. It’s a lovely story and I’m looking to start Pratchett’s Discworld series in 2011.
