Terry Pratchett
Ninety percent of true love is acute, ear-burning embarrassment.
Terry Pratchett
When people say things are a lot more complicated than that, they means they're getting worried that they won't like the truth.
Terry Pratchett
I know it's a very human thing to say 'Is there anything I can do', but in this case I would only entertain offers from very high-end experts in brain chemistry.
Terry Pratchett
The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it.
Terry Pratchett
Matter exploded into being, apparently as chaos, but in fact as a chord. The ultimate power chord.
Terry Pratchett
Oh, where are my manners? Do sit down. Pull up a small child.
Terry Pratchett
There will be justice, said Brutha. If there is no justice, there is nothing.
