More quotes by Terry Pratchett
It's hard to explain, said Brutha. But I think it's got something to do with how people should behave... you should do things because they're right. Not because gods say so. They might say something different another time.
Terry Pratchett
You can't die with an unfinished book.
Terry Pratchett
Most gods find it hard to walk and think at the same time.
Terry Pratchett
When a man is tired of Ankh-Morpork, he is tired of ankle-deep slurry.
Terry Pratchett
A bad hunter chases. A good hunter waits.
Terry Pratchett
Truth! Freedom! Justice! And a hard-boiled egg!
Terry Pratchett
I have a living will and I have friends, and I have money and I have hope.
Terry Pratchett
But you ain't part of it, are you? said Granny conversationally. You try, but you always find yourself watchin' yourself watchin' people, eh? Never quite believin' anything? Thinkin' the wrong thoughts?
Terry Pratchett
Books must be treated with respect, we feel that in our bones, because words have power. Bring enough words together they can bend space and time.
Terry Pratchett
It is a long-cherished tradition among a certain type of military thinker that huge casualties are the main thing. If they are on the other side then this is a valuable bonus.
Terry Pratchett
I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it.
Terry Pratchett
Our garden was debated territory between five local cats, and we'd heard that the best way to keep other cats out of the garden was to have one yourself. A moment's rational thought here will spot the slight flaw in this reasoning.
Terry Pratchett
If my father could have sat up in bed and said goodbye, I'd have pressed the button. I wouldn't have been able to see for crying, but I would have considered that a duty.
Terry Pratchett
Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of our lives.
Terry Pratchett
People who are rather more than six feet tall and nearly as broad across the shoulders often have uneventful journeys. People jump out at them from behind rocks then say things like, Oh. Sorry. I thought you were someone else.
Terry Pratchett
No, I happen to be one of those people whose memory shuts down under pressure. The answers would come to me in the middle of the night in my sleep! Besides, I am a millionaire.
Terry Pratchett
Don't you understand? snarled Rincewind. We are going over the Edge, godsdammit! Can't we do anything about it? No! Then I can't see the sense in panicking, said Twoflower calmly.
Terry Pratchett
I thought it very strange, and very sad, that the fairy kingdom largely appears to be English. I thought it was time for some regional representation. And the Nac Mac Feegle are, well, they're like tiny little Scottish Smurfs who have seen Braveheart altogether too many times.
Terry Pratchett
But then science is nothing but a series of questions that lead to more questions.
Terry Pratchett
I reckon responsible behavior is something to get when you grow older. Like varicose veins.
