Terry Pratchett. The matter tobacco (№ 189172)

- You're a Duke, commander of the city watch and...
- The duty of the Board...
- Yes, Sam, and this is the greatest honor which could only honor you the king of the dwarves. Vimes, the Duty on the Board! The one who clears the written word. The man who destroys what was before. That's what you are, Sam. If you die, the government office of the whole world will tremble... and, unfortunately, Sam, they will not fear from death of a maid.
