How do you get all those coins? asked Mort. IN PAIRS.
Terry Pratchett
Five exclamation marks: the sure sign of an insane mind.

Terry Pratchett
Balance. It was all about balance. That had been one of the first things that she had learned: the centre of the seesaw has neither up nor down, but upness and downness flow through it while it remains unmoved.

Terry Pratchett

Terry Pratchett
