More quotes by Terry Pratchett

Terry Pratchett
If you try to to take my bananas from me, I will reclaim them from your cold dead hands.
Terry Pratchett

Terry Pratchett
A witch ought never to be frightened in the darkest forest ... because she should be sure in her soul that the most terrifying thing in the forest was her.
Terry Pratchett
We have been so successful in the past century at the art of living longer and staying alive that we have forgotten how to die. Too often we learn the hard way. As soon as the baby boomers pass pensionable age, their lesson will be harsher still.
Terry Pratchett
By the time you've reached your sixties, you do know that one day you will die, and knowing that is at least the beginning of wisdom.
Terry Pratchett
Perhaps the magic would last, perhaps it wouldn't. But then again, what does?
Terry Pratchett
Seeing things a human shouldn't have to see makes us human.
Terry Pratchett
(About a cookbook...) - What about this one? Maids of Honor? - Weeelll, they starts OUT as Maids of Honor...but they ends up Tarts.
Terry Pratchett
Either dragons should exist completely or fail to exist at all, he felt. A dragon only half-existing was worse than the extremes.
Terry Pratchett
Cats will amusingly tolerate humans only until someone comes up with a tin opener that can be operated with a paw.
