rocking back and forth. dog-botherer and his dog. vetinari's terrier, i've heard them call you. always hot on the chase and he won't let go. do you know they call vimes “vetinari’s terrier”? terriers dig and dig and don’t let go. we are all someone's dog. someone got past his guard. yes. and i'm his guard. i'm his guard and i didn't see it coming. he's here somewhere. i know it. who is your boss, sir samuel? when push comes to shove? I think he’s got a sort of soft spot for the patrician, in his way. he once said that if anyone was going to kill vetinari he’d like it to be him. but he was smiling when he said it. that's your master, is it? the thought occurs, sir, that if commander vimes did not exist you would have had to invent him. you know, drumknott, i rather think i did. vetinari had tamed ankh-morpork. he’d tamed it like a dog. he needed vimes and his view of the world. he didn't thump the wall. i may have gone too far. he gave vetinari the look which said: if you take this any further i will have to lie. vetinari returned one which said: i know. sam vimes once arrested me for treason. he is known as vetinari's terrier. apparently, his lordship rather enjoys allowing vimes to break wind in the halls of the mighty. vetinari's terrier, eh?
