The "he" wouldn't happen to be Regal, making a bit of a mockery of the Fool, would it?

I think #16 might be Ronica & Keffria talking about teaching Malta how to do the accounts...to teach her how to be responsible after her behaviour at the ball? maybe....

That would be quite correct, Jizdin...

Ah, "he" would be Regal but nothing of mockery here...quite the opposite, in fact...you're almost there! THANK YOU JIZDIN - that quote has finally been solved and I can delete it from my mind....! Good on you!!

mockery depends on the viewpoint. Whereas Regal might not have intended it (or might have) the reader will get a different view. The fool was given new clothes chosen by regal, but the fool put them on himself. He did not particularly like the clothes, let alone the role intended for him by the pretender...

Don't do what you can't undo, until you've considered what you can't do once you've done it.. I am sure someone has quoted this in these 17 pages but it's the perfect quote for life.... A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened. Albert Camus

That quote was given to Fitz from Shrewd, I think in regard to Fitz considering killing Regal? Either way, it was definitely Shrewd to Fitz. I agree, it's a fantastic motto for life!! EDIT: I'm a twit, don't mind me! It was actually Shrewd saying it to Regal about Fitz. Ah, can't quite remember the circumstance but it was early on, and maybe Regal thought Fitz shouldn't be allowed to live, let alone go to Buckkeep from Moonseye? Fitz himself said this quote somewhere, sometime later...I think?!

Sorry 'thul beings...my computer seizes up every time I come to this thread and I was sure I replied to this and added another quote (twice!). Yes, you're right. Regal gave Fool new clothes to wear but, rather than mockery, I got the idea that Regal just wanted Fool to be seen as 'normal' rather than as his usual 'freakish' self? He wanted a witty and well-dressed jester to complement his quest for kingship, not a 'fool'? I guess this, in itself, does make a mockery of the Fool as he normally is. I like this entire passage as it's the first place where we get a true glimpse of Fool's ability to change his identity...he did such a good job at becoming what/who Regal wanted him to be that it even frightened Fitz: Quote:...He turned in a slow circle for me to admire him. 'Well?' Fitz a little later goes on to think: Quote:With his elegant clothes and unaccustomed postures, he frightened me. It was as if another being inhabited his body, one I knew not at all.
