More quotes by Terry Pratchett
After you've been working fairly intensively on a novel for six months you never want to see the damn thing again.
Terry Pratchett
He thought about how it might be to be, say, a fox confronted with an angry sheep. A sheep moreover, that could afford to employ wolves.
Terry Pratchett
Progress just means bad things happen faster.
Terry Pratchett
Needless to say, they refused to submit to the Empire, conducting such a persistent guerrilla war that the Romans gave up hope of conquering Scotland, and the Wee Free Men remained both wee and free.
Terry Pratchett
Granny Weatherwax was firmly against fiction. Life was hard enough without lies floating around and changing the way people thought.
Terry Pratchett

Terry Pratchett
I do note with interest that old women in my books become young women on the covers... this is discrimination against the chronologically gifted.
Terry Pratchett
Witches were a bit like cats. They didn’t much like one another’s company, but they did like to know where all the other witches were, just in case they needed them.
Terry Pratchett
When you're all singing together, it brings things together. I know the songs that my grandfather and my father sang.
Terry Pratchett
Experience has taught me that you feel better on a flight if you avoid chicken fat in plastic sauce.
Terry Pratchett
Lots of people would be as cowardly as me if they were brave enough.
Terry Pratchett
Everywhere's been where it is ever since it was first put there. It's called geography.
Terry Pratchett
It's lies. It's all lies. Some of them are just prettier than others, that's all. People see what they think is there.
Terry Pratchett
Maybe the best comics are written by people who really are at ease in the comic world.
Terry Pratchett
Making money isn't something to be ashamed of. There's a feeling now that if you have money you must have got it by some kind of shady dealing or being an MP.
Terry Pratchett
He never pays attention, he always knows the answer, and he can never tell you how he knows. We can't keep thrashing him. He is a bad example to the other pupils. There's no educating a smart boy.
Terry Pratchett
WHERE'S MY COW? ARE YOU MY COW?
Terry Pratchett
But there was more to it than that. As the Amazing Maurice said, it was just a story about people and rats. And the difficult part of it was deciding who the people were, and who were the rats.
Terry Pratchett
Her singing always cheered him up. Life seemed so much brighter when she stopped.
Terry Pratchett
If I knew that I could die, I would live. My life, my death, my choice.
Terry Pratchett
