More quotes by Terry Pratchett
There are many horrible sights in the multiverse. Somehow, though, to a soul attuned to the subtle rhythms of a library, there are few worse sights than a hole where a book ought to be.
Terry Pratchett
So, mistletoe, in fact, symbolizes mistletoe.
Terry Pratchett
Seeing things a human shouldn't have to see makes us human.
Terry Pratchett
Granny Weatherwas was not a jouster in the lists of love, but, as an intelligent onlooker, she knew how the game was played.
Terry Pratchett
It was long after midnight and the stars looked damp and chilly the air was full of the busy silence of the night, which is created by hundreds of small furry things treading very carefully in the hope of finding dinner while avoiding being the main course.
Terry Pratchett
It was like being in a Jane Austen novel, but one with far less clothing.
Terry Pratchett
When all else failed, she tried being reasonable.
Terry Pratchett
First Thoughts are the everyday thoughts. Everyone has those. Second Thoughts are the thoughts you think about the way you think. People who enjoy thinking have those. Third Thoughts are thoughts that watch the world and think all by themselves. They’re rare, and often troublesome. Listening to them is part of witchcraft.
Terry Pratchett

Terry Pratchett
The Truth Shall Make Ye Fret. [Fred. Free.]

Terry Pratchett
When it's time to stop living, I will certainly make Death my number one choice!
Terry Pratchett
Lord Vetinari lifted an eyebrow with the care of one who, having found a piece of caterpillar in his salad, raises the rest of the lettuce.
Terry Pratchett
I must confess the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occurred to him.
Terry Pratchett
Pets are always a great help in times of stress. And in times of starvation too, o'course.
Terry Pratchett
Be careful what you wish for. You never know who will be listening.
Terry Pratchett
For an author, the nice characters aren't much fun. What you want are the screwed up characters. You know, the characters that are constantly wondering if what they are doing is the right thing, characters that are not only screwed up but are self-tapping screws. They're doing it for themselves.
Terry Pratchett
Ach, people are always telling us not to do things said Rob Anybody, that's how we ken the most interesting things to do.
Terry Pratchett
There was no safety. There was no pride. All there was, was money. Everything became money, and money became everything. Money treated us as if we were things, and we died.
