“They say that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it is not one half so bad as a lot of ignorance.
“If you ignore the rules people will, half the time, quietly rewrite them so that they don't apply to you.”
“They both savoured the strange warm glow of being much more ignorant than ordinary people, who were only ignorant of ordinary things.”

Equal Rites is where Terry Pratchett started trying to move beyond being "just" funny (being funny is a lot harder than a lot of writers think) and into Saying Something Serious™️. But he wasn't, IMO, very good at it yet.
ORIGINAL REVIEW:
Silly and fun. Not as good as others I've read, but entertaining, and I can always use some Granny Weatherwax in my life.
