Humor Quote by Terry Pratchett

“Petulia's expression didn't change for a while. Then she said: 'So it WAS a fairy, then?' 'Well, yes. Technically.' The round pink face smiled. 'Good, I did wonder, because it was, um, you know...having a wee up against one of Miss Level's garden gnomes?' 'DEFINITELY a Feegle,' said Tiffany.” quote by Terry Pratchett
