"In many of the more relaxed civilizations on the Outer Eastern Rim of the Galaxy, the Hitchhiker's Guide has already supplanted the great Encyclopaedia Galactica as the standard repository of all knowledge and wisdom, for though it has many omissions and contains much that is apocryphal, or at least wildly inaccurate, it scores over the older, more pedestrian work in two important respects.
First, it is slightly cheaper; and secondly it has the words DON'T PANIC inscribed in large friendly letters on its cover."
-The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
I have decided that all travel books need to adopt these two important respects. They should all be cheaper, and should all say DON'T PANIC on the cover in large friendly letters. I haven't even left yet and already I find myself saying this on a daily basis.
