Terry Pratchett
I'm not cruel, sir, I won't shoot you in the guts, but I will make you realize how much you took your toes for granted.
Terry Pratchett

Terry Pratchett
Progress just means bad things happen faster.
Terry Pratchett

Terry Pratchett
It's tough at the top. It's tough at the bottom. But in between you could use them for horse-shoes.
Terry Pratchett
Right! Right! You can get there! I can get there! You're a natural at counting to two! I'm a nat'ral at counting to two! If you can count to two, you can count to anything! If I can count to two, I can count to anything! And then the world is your mollusc! My mollusc! What's a mollusc?
Terry Pratchett
