Quote by Terry Pratchett
Your average witch is not, by nature, a social animal as far as other witches are concerned. There's a conflict of dominant personalities. There's a group of ringleaders without a ring. There's the basic unwritten rule of witchcraft, which is 'Don't do what you will, do what I say.' The natural size of a coven is one. Witches only get together when they can't avoid it.
Summary
This quote highlights the paradoxical nature of witches and their relationships with each other. It implies that most witches are not naturally inclined to socialize with one another due to conflicts arising from dominant personalities and a lack of leadership structure within their group. The unwritten rule of witchcraft, promoting obedience to authority rather than personal will, further adds to the tension between witches. Consequently, the quote suggests that the preferred size of a witch's group is just one, and they only come together when absolutely necessary, emphasizing their independent and individualistic nature.
