More quotes by Terry Pratchett
He talks pretty big for a gutter wizard, he muttered. You don't understand at all, said the wizard wearily.

The ultimate power chord.
Terry Pratchett

Terry Pratchett
Most gods throw dice, but Fate plays chess, and you don't find out til too late that he's been playing with two queens all along.
Terry Pratchett
Or -- and this she knew was a far more accurate way of looking at it -- the book was true and reality was lying.
Terry Pratchett
People are often so busy living that they never stop to wonder why.
Terry Pratchett
Just because you've got a mind like a hammer doesn't mean you have to treat everyone else like a nail

Terry Pratchett
When people say clearly something that means there's a huge crack in their argument and they know things aren't clear at all.
Terry Pratchett
People needed to believe in gods, if only because it was so hard to believe in people.
Terry Pratchett
Hello, inner child, I'm the inner babysitter!
