Too much magic could wrap time and space around itself, and that wasn't good news for the kind of person who had grown used to things like effects following things like causes.
Terry Pratchett
Image
There were no lies here. All fancies fled away. That's what happened in all deserts. It was just you, and what you believed.
Terry Pratchett
Image
The mountains of madness have many little plateau of sanity.
Terry Pratchett
Image
Any wizard bright enough to survive for five minutes was also bright enough to realize that if there was any power in demonology, then it lay with the demons. Using it for your own purposes would be like trying to beat mice to death with a rattlesnake.
Terry Pratchett

Terry Pratchett
Image
But here's some advice, boy. Don't put your trust in revolutions. They always come around again. That's why they're called revolutions.
Terry Pratchett
Image
Coffee is a way of stealing time that should by rights belong to your older self.
Terry Pratchett
Image
It is at this point that normal language gives up, and goes and has a drink.
Terry Pratchett
Image
There's a door, he whispered. Where does it go? It stays where it is, I think, said Rincewind.
Terry Pratchett
Image
It's still magic even if you know how it's done.
Terry Pratchett
Image
She was also, by the standards of other people, lost. She would not see it like that. She knew where she was, it was just that everywhere else didn't.
Terry Pratchett
Image
He sighed. It had come to this. He was a responsible authority, and people could use terms like core values at him with impunity.
Terry Pratchett
Image
Fantasy is uni-age. You can start it in the creche, and it follows you to death.
Terry Pratchett

A weapon you held and didn't know how to use belonged to your enemy.
