+Less a blog post, and more "_something I want to have a persistent addressable record of_". Terry Pratchett has _many_ pearls of wisdom that bear remembering[^1] - this particular exchange takes place between Mightily Oats (a naïve well-intentioned religious missionary) and Granny Weatherwax (the tough embittered rustic crone-witch who will help anyone who needs it, but recognizes that "'good' ain't the same as 'nice'"...)

+“It’s not as simple as that. It’s not a black and white issue. There are so many shades of gray.”
+
+“Nope.”

+
+“Oh, I’m sure there are worse crimes . . .”
+
+“But they starts with thinking about people as things . . . ”
