Happy Hogswatch!
“IT’S THE EXPRESSION ON THEIR LITTLE FACES I LIKE, said the Hogfather.
Terry Pratchett, Hogfather
“You mean sort of fear and awe and not knowing whether to laugh or cry or wet their pants?”
YES. NOW THAT IS WHAT I CALL BELIEF.”
“It was nice to hear the voices of little children at play, provided you took care to be far enough away not to hear what they were actually saying.”
Terry Pratchett, Hogfather
“NO. YOU NEED TO BELIEVE IN THINGS THAT AREN’T TRUE. HOW ELSE CAN THEY BECOME?”
Terry Pratchett, Hogfather

“Hailing frequencies open, sir.”
Nyota Uhuru was a member of the original Star Trek series. The crew was multicultural and she was one of the first black leading women on American television. As the communication officer of the Enterprise she was a junior compared to the triumvirate Kirk, Spock and McCoy, nevertheless she became a role model for many black girls (her skimpy uniform skirts not withstanding).
