I read this passage in Good Omens:
Loyalty was a great thing, but no lieutenants should be forced to choose between their leader and a circus with elephants.

Which spawned:


Teehee.

I'll probably work Mowett into there somewhere only I haven't caricatured him yet, and I shall have to take special care to make him not look like Moist.

Tula! I am working on your birthday card! I just didn't have any reference on the bus!

Gah, I just want to pinch his cheek!

Although I have to admit that the first thing I though of when seeing this was "Withe a 1,000 Elephants!"

I suggest we petition Messrs Gaiman and Pratchett to change it to "but no lieutenants should be forced to choose between their leader and a circus Withe a 1,000 Elephants!"

xD I'd buy the revised copy like that, even if only for that one sentence. Because, man: elephants!

I just had the best visual ever of a cranky old man saying the first bit solemnly and sort of tongue-in-cheek like on an audiobook, and then exploding with passion at the end.

"Loyalty was a great thing, but no lieutenants should be forced to choose between their leader and a circus Withe a 1,000 Elephants!"

Oh, you cheeky imagination you.
