A girl and her books

Trillian
"Can you show us some more... magic, Great Wizard?" […] Rincewind decided to chance things. "I've got a good one," he said. "It's a vanishing trick." "Can you... do it now?" "Only if everyone opens all the doors and turns their backs."

Trillian
"[...] Besides... where Rincewind went" - he lowered his voice - "trouble followed behind." Ridcully noticed that the wizards drew a little closer together. "Sounds all right to me," he said. "Best place for trouble, behind. You certainly don't want it in front."
