When he was a little boy, Sam Vimes had thought that the very rich ate off gold plates and lived in marble houses.    He’d learned something new: the very very rich could afford to be poor. Sybil Ramkin lived in the kind of poverty that was only available to the very rich, a poverty approached from the other side. Women who were merely well-off saved up and bought dresses made of silk edged with lace and pearls, but Lady Ramkin was so rich she could afford to stomp around the place in rubber boots and a tweed skirt that had belonged to her mother. She was so rich she could afford to live on biscuits and cheese sandwiches. She was so rich she lived in three rooms in a thirty-four-roomed mansion; the rest of them were full of very expensive and very old furniture, covered in dust sheets.    The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.      Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.     But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.     This was the Captain Samuel Vimes “Boots” theory of socioeconomic unfairness.

Damn, this always brings a tear :’(

Let’s go to the sea, before sunrise. The city lights go out, one by one, the stars fade, then the horizon glows, almost like it’s on fire. It’s kinda rose-colored, right? First the sea, then it spreads to the sky, then to the whole city. It gets brighter and brighter till everything… glows. It’s really pretty. I know you’d like it.

Si je devais avoir du mépris

Si je devais avoir du mépris, ce ne serait pas pour l’ignorant, le fanatique, le passionné ridicule, pour les gens superficiels ou imbus d’eux-mêmes.

Si je devais avoir du mépris, ce ne serait pas pour le cracher à la tête de ceux qui ont une opinion différente de la mienne.

Si je devais avoir du mépris, ce ne serait pas pour ceux qui se comportent comme des cons aujourd’hui.

Non, si je devais avoir du mépris, ce serait pour ceux qui se comporteront comme des cons demain.

Ce serait pour ceux qui se pavanent plein de certitudes, certains de leurs connaissances inébranlables, de leurs sources irréfutables, de leur parole incontestable. Inamovibles colosses dont les théories sont étayées à grand renforts de données biaisées, d’extrapolations fumeuses, de faits mal analysés et de vérités partielles.

Pour ceux qui se font fort d’esquiver les questions gênantes avec la mauvaise grâce que caractérise une foi encore plus mauvaise.

Ceux qui refusent le dialogue en bâillonnant ceux qui les entourent. Ceux qui se créent des œillères pour ne contempler que ce qui leurs plait. Ceux qui s’assourdissent avec leurs propres discours, tels des disques rayés, ânonnant les mêmes paroles jours après jours.

Ce serait non pas pour celui qui n’est pas intelligent, mais pour celui qui refuse de l’être.

Car si l’intelligence est dans la nature de l’Homme, alors je ne vois pas de comportement plus aberrant que celui qui consiste à en refuser l’expression et le développement.

Oui, si je devais avoir du mépris, ce serait pour lui, pour elle. Pour toi aussi qui me lis. Pour moi, surtout.

Car l’idée même que l’immobilisme intellectuel est une plaie est une idée fixe. Sans doute s’appuie-t-elle sur les biais mentionnés plus haut.

Mais c’est la seule qui semble conserver la notion d’autocritique et de rigueur intellectuelle, et c’est sans doute celle qui confère à notre esprit le plus de vertu.

Matt Colville is a great person and a awesome DM. A combination too rare to ignore.
