Text Quotes
No one thinks that young adults read hooks for YOUNG ADULTS, books for young adults are read by kids.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) Thats how we survive infinity - we kill it by breaking it up into small bits  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) And at the other end of the bar the world is full of the other type of person, who has a broken glass, or a glass that has been carelessly knocked over (usually by one of the people calling for a larger glass) or who had no glass at all, because he was at the back of the crowd and had failed to catch the barman’s eye.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) Brother Preptil, the master of the music, had described Brutha’s voice as putting him in mind of a disappointed vulture arriving too late at the dead donkey.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) I’ve never really liked the Yanks. ... You can’t trust people who pick up the ball all the time when they play football.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) There’s always a story. It’s all stories, really. The sun coming up every day is a story. Everything’s got a story in it. Change the story, change the world.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) Granny Weatherwax was firmly against fiction. Life was hard enough without lies floating around and changing the way people thought.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) In the first book of my Discworld series, published more than 26 years ago, I introduced Death as a character; there was nothing particularly new about this - death has featured in art and literature since medieval times, and for centuries we have had a fascination with the Grim Reaper.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) Hell wasn’t a major reservoir of evil, any more then Heaven, in Crowley’s opinion, was a fountain of goodness; they were just sides in the great cosmic chess game. Where you found the real McCoy, the real grace and the real heart-stopping evil, was right inside the human mind.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man I put away childish things because. wow, then I could afford much *better* childish things!  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) The conflict is not between Christianity and Islam or between East and West - instead, it is between stupid people and other stupid people.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) A hardback’s harder at Christmas time because that’s a good hardback buying time  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) Siren voices tell me, ‘You don’t have to keep going on.’ And then you think, ‘I’m a writer. What do I do? Sit there watching my wife clean up?’ I don’t know. I like being a writer.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) Everybody has somebody. It could be a friend, a lover, a spouse, a writing partner, or even That One Person You See At The Coffee Shop each day. Sometimes they exist to comfort you. Sometimes they exist to drive you absolutely mad. Be open to either as a form of self-improvement.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) Money is an unavoidable consequence, but it isn’t the reason I write; if it was, I wouldn’t have written any of the YA books, because advances in that field are small compared to what I’d got now for an ‘adult’ DW.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) When people say things are a lot more complicated than that, they means they’re getting worried that they won’t like the truth.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) Triboplasts played a crucial role in evolution, precisely because they did have internal organs, and in particular they could ingest food and excrete it. Their excreta became a major resource for other creatures; to get an interestingly complicated world, it is vitally important that shit happens.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) He had done regular live concerts from San Quentin jail until the civil rights people got him under the Cruel and Unusual Punishment clause.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) If cats looked like frogs we’d realize what nasty, cruel little bastards they are. Style. That’s what people remember.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) Curiosity may have killed the cat, but her’s curiosity could have massacred a pride of lions  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) After you’ve been working fairly intensively on a novel for six months you never want to see the damn thing again.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) People don’t like to say Horror so they say Dark Fantasy because that’s Horror wearing a collar and tie.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) He’d heard that writers spent all day in their dressing gowns drinking champagne. This is, of course, absolutely true.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) Oh dear me, the Booker people don’t like me. I don’t care. I have been given an award for being taken not seriously, and I am very, very pleased about that.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) I believe everyone should have a good death. You know, with your grandchildren around you, a bit of sobbing. Because after all, tears are appropriate on a death bed. And you say goodbye to your loved ones, making certain that one of them has been left behind to look after the shop.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) It takes a long time for people like Vorbis to die. They leave echoes in history.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) People are content to wait a long time for salvation, but prefer dinner to turn up inside an hour  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) I got quite annoyed after the Haiti earthquake. A baby was taken from the wreckage and people said it was a miracle. It would have been a miracle had God stopped the earthquake. More wonderful was that a load of evolved monkeys got together to save the life of a child that wasn’t theirs.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) All was black, gloomy and awful. There was no light at the end of the tunnel - or if there was, it was an oncoming train.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes) Actors, said Granny, witheringly. As if the world weren’t full of enough history without inventing more.  (Terry Pratchett Quotes)
