Obligatory Discworld quote :
The astro-philosophers of Krull once succeeded in proving conclusively that all places are one place and that the distance between them is an illusion, and this news was an embarrassment to all thinking philosophers because it did not explain, among other things, signposts. After years of wrangling the whole thing was then turned over to Lyn Tin Wheedle, arguably the Disc’s greatest philosopher (he always argued that he was), who after some thought proclaimed that although it was indeed true that all places were one place, that place was very large.
